The Babby Babes: March 2011

"See my Teethies!"

Can you see them? The two little white chiclets on the bottom (central incisors) in the top picture! She's enjoying lots of new foods with these and making Mama think it's getting time to think about weaning. I'm a big believer in getting to a year, if possible. However, big sister was done at ten months as she thought biting was funny and a game...not going into the E.R. over it, that's for sure! Both boys went well over a year, so we'll see where she ends up-hopefully somewhere in between.

Sleepy Girl

Wee love fell asleep "reading" her book.

Thumbs Up, Mission Accomplished!

We we were quite lucky to get Karli and Kyle for a spontaneous dinner date. Since it was spontaneous, non of the kids knew until I picked up K & K from their after school care on my way home from work. Then the plotting began! Karli, Kyle and I came up with a brillant plan (actually multiple plans) to surprise the boys (and Patsy) when we came home. I'll save you details of how we pulled it off, but basically as the boys came running in to see me, then Karli and Kyle popped out from behind the China hutch. You should have seen the look on Brandon's face! I think Brandon actually said in the sweetest voice, "Are you really here?" I think he was afraid that he was only dreaming. Once they all realized it was real, the squeals of delight filled the house and we had a wonderful evening.

Ballet Recital

We're on our way to the end of session ballet "recital." Patsy's still LOVING dance and so we'll be doing another session after this one. I just love the rain boots!
