Parents, how do you get anything done with a baby? Since we had her, it seems like we've barely been able to take care of the essentials to maintain sanity (running, showering, eating & laundry). One of us is usually running interference with the little one, giving the other spouse a few minutes to get something done. Let's ignore the fact the house desperately needs cleaned & home improvement has come to all but a standstill.
Despite it all, we fall in love with her over and over and over again. And each day she surprises us with new development - smiles, giggles, movement.
Her hair is fabulous.Hands by the head/face for sleeping. Always.
"Please, no pictures right now."
Her papa put her down in front of the mirror in our room & she was instantly fascinated. Look closely & you can see Brewer's snout, checking things out.
Coy smile.
Our turkey was not amused.
These are the moments when the plug comes in handy.
As I was looking through pictures, I realized we never posted these pictures from the fall, shortly after we moved into the house. We have a dogwood shrub which we happily discovered attracts a large variety of birds. We'd sit in our sun room, eating dinner & watching the birds fill up on the berries, preparing for winter.
More recently, we've had a series of strong windstorms. We saw this girl taking advantage of the spilled sunflower seeds from the bird feeder after a strong wind blew through the area.
