Bouncing Baby Girl


We got this bouncy thingy for Paige a few weeks ago. It's been a real hit! She loves jumping and standing and playing with all the toys. This kid can move! I can't believe how fast she's growing up. It wasn't long ago that she was a tiny little bundle...now she's a lump of soft baby chunk. She's by far my "chunkiest" baby. I love it. Love squishing those chunky legs!

Paige is a joy. She's such a happy-go-lucky little thing. Truly, she barely ever cries. And when she does, it's almost always because she was startled by a loud noise. Sneezes are the worst! Poor baby puckers out that lip and makes a face that would melt your heart before she lets loose with the crying. Breaks my heart every time. But it's awful hard not to sneeze when you need to.

Paige is already getting her first tooth and, okay, she's cried a tiny bit more lately. I'm devastated. Utterly devastated. My baby can't be getting a tooth already! Because we are sure we're done having babies, I'm very sentimental about every little stage and milestone. I want to savor every little soft baby moment and pack it away carefully so I never forget these precious moments.

Oh, I do love my Paigey.

Maddie's Big Day!

I'm just gushing over here.  My second-born took a big step today and made a decision for Christ!  We were having a talk in the car on the way to the store about heaven and next thing I know she's over there quietly folding her hands and whispering a prayer to Jesus. When she was done, she looked over at me with a big smile and said, "I have so many blessings from God, Mommy!" Indeed. Happy Born Again Day, Madison Elizabeth!  We love you so much.

If you can't beat 'em....

Brooklyn can't seem to resist writing on the walls. I finally decided to put an end to the battle.... Now she has her own special place in her bedroom to be as creative as she wants (within reason). This can be painted over and it gives her some boundaries while still allowing her to be "creative." I'm not sure she'll have any interest in writing on the wall now that it isn't against the rules but I sure had fun painting on the wall. I'm tempted to paint myself a square to doodle and scribble on.

About Last Weekend

Image
  Let me just say, everybody is fine.  But that picture up there, in Brooklyn's sweet note to her Daddy, pretty much sums up our weekend.  Blood.  Lots of it.  Flowing out of Sean's foot.    On Sunday afternoon Sean was using a weed-eater to try and tame our wild, jungle grass in the yard.  This weed-eater, rather than having a nice, docile nylon string was basically a little metal machete propeller.  Which, incidently, is not so safe when you accidently get your foot in its way.   Ugh.  Let me just say that seeing my husband's foot bleeding profusely was mighty disconcerting.  I worked in a dialysis unit, mind you, and regularly dealt with people's blood.  But when it is somebody you love, it just can't be helped to feel a little woozy and worried at the sight.    Praise God, it wasn't a toe and Praise God it wasn't any worse.  We were able to drop the girls off with our teammates and get him to t...
