My Girls

Addy can support her head well enough now that she can use the bumbo to sit up. Every time we bring out something that Lily used as a baby it's like you can hear her thinking "hey, I remember that thing". She'll watch Addy use it and then the minute Addy's done, Lily is in it...whether the swing, the basket, the bouncy seats, or now the bumbo. Lily is especially interested in Addy lately. There are constant hugs (we have to watch carefully to be sure the hugs don't turn into smothering), kisses, patting, etc. If Addy could talk she'd already be saying "quit touching me, quit touching me" :) Here's the progression from....."Addy can sit in my bumbo" to "I'm waiting for Addy to get out of the bumbo" and on to "Finally, I'm in the bumbo". It doesn't take much to humor us lately!

It has finally been raining here for the last 2 days. Our yard is parched, but it's finally gotten a good soaking. I complained about the rain b/c we were going to festivals yesterday and getting poured on, and I planned a day at the pool today that got rained out....but I really shouldn't complain, the rain was much needed. This is my last week of leave, and then it's back to work next Monday. It's definitely going to be hard to leave the girls all day, but in a way I'm ready to go back to the adult world. So we'll see how it goes!
