Some Pictures

This is a "cuddle nest" for those of you wondering how we could safely co-sleep while I was on pain killers. It fits nicely between us in our bed. It was actually recommended to us while I recovered from the C/S with Lil'Bug; Dearest had to go out of town when she was two weeks old and I was still not very mobile. This solved the problem of midnight feedings and diaper changes.


Lil'Bug feels much better with pigtails, she tells me.


Proof that Blueberry is in fact awake sometimes! Every single outing we have gone on she has slept through entirely. :)


Clean baby! Clean big sister. It is Lil'Bug's job to fill the bath water in the baby tub, check the temperature, and empty it when we are done. She looks so grown up here!


And that's our week so far. I have more posts and less time. :)

Mosquitos

One unreported side effect from the flooding that is affecting us: mosquito populations. There are already a whole lot of them. Swarming. Eck.

Butterfly

I was playing a logic game this morning with Lil'Bug:

"You are beautiful and I like watching you play; butterflies are beautiful and I like watching butterflies, so you must be a butterfly!"

She looks at me puzzled. I continue, "You like playing in the flowers, so do butterflies, so you must be a butterfly! Right?"

She thinks on this, "No Mama, I have to wear day clothes, night clothes, and swimsuits. Butterflies are naked, so I am not a butterfly."

:) I almost fell over laughing.

Another Flood Update

We are still fine, still on the bluff side of the river, still on a hill. Even friends and family who live in town have been calling to see if we are ok because the school at the bottom of the hill on the levee side of the river is flooded. The levee failed.

So, worry not. As long as we still have water, we will be fine.

On a side note not related to flooding: AUNT BEE GOT ENGAGED! WHOO HOO! Congratulations little sister!
