In like a lion...


Yay for March! Except that I went an entire month without blogging. Can you blame me? Work has picked up quite a bit, my child is fully engaged in eating solid foods, I'm trying to find time to vacuum since she is also crawl-rolling all over tarnation, suddenly there's yard work, hiking, spring cleaning, taxes--you name it, we're doing it! We did have time for a quick Sunday photo session with our new favorite photographer, Lisa Woolcock. Lisa is a friend in town starting her own side photography business. You can see some of our photos here at her photo blog!

Off the top of my head, here are some things to share. We are days away from "mama." The mouth moves silently with "Ms" galore, but she's not quite brave enough to make the sound. My girl loves yogurt. She tolerates avocado. We have a morning Cheerio ritual that involves about 45 Cheerios-- 2 into her mouth and 43 on to the floor, into the eager mouth of the awaiting dog. She's teething and drooling. She slept 8 hours one night like a champ. When her teeth hurt she wakes every 20 minutes between 2-4am. She cackles a hearty laugh at her parents, animals and inanimate objects that strike her fancy. She gets MAD at things that don't do what she asks, including her parents, animals and inanimate objects that strike her fancy. She plays independently for 20 minutes at a time. If I turn my back, she rolls under the crib, around a corner, to lick the remote control, to pull the cat's tummy pooch, or to eat Mama's legal papers left laying carelessly within her reach. In short, we are busy. BUSY. And she gets more fans everyday. She's adorable, fun and smiley. Not a sleepy child, like some-- but an exciting, happy one. And we love her to BITS.
