Oh Poopie

Autumn has a pretty bad rash, so I'm trying to give her some "airing out" time each day. We laid her on a towel to catch any 'accidents'. After cleaning up another one of those accidents I'll just say I'm REALLY glad we use disposable diapers.

Ebby and the Pool

Getting to know the water:

 

Playing in the water (mostly splashing):

It was so hot today ...

So, have you ever had a really bad stuffed up nose and taken a long hot shower and been able to breathe again?
Yes? No?
Well I'll tell you, I had a stuffed up nose and I got that exact same relief when I walked outside today. Gotta love that Texas humidity.

Crawling Already!?!

So as I was doing my chores the other day I noticed that Autumn wasn't where I left her. She was across the room. Could she have crawled over there? Ebby started crawling at six months and Autumn's not even five months yet. So, I put her back and stuck around to video her crawling. This is what really happened.

Pistachio Jell-O Salad

So, I miss being around family and friends - a lot. I miss everyone, but every now and then I'll start to miss one person in particular. When this happens I usually do something or wear something that reminds me of that person.
When I miss my mother, I usually wear some jewelry she gave me or watch a Shakespearean movie. When I miss Tona I put on pajamas, curl up on the couch and watch a "girlie movie" while painting my toenails. Etc.
Well today I'm missing my big sister, Amy.
Let's see, how long ago was it? ... Never mind, I don't want to write down how many years ago this happened. Suffice it to say, Amy was attending BYU and I was still in high school. She stayed over the summer to take some classes and I came up to stay with her for a couple weeks. I remember having a lot of fun and a lot of pistachio jell-o salad. There was always a big bowl of it in the refrigerator. I view that summer as the start of our real friendship. That summer (for me at least) Amy became my friend as well as sister. So, now Amy and pistachio jell-o salad are kinda linked together. Both are incredibly awesome! Today I made a double batch.

Dancing Ebby

Thanks to music makers and our occasional dance party at home Ebby is starting to really enjoy dancing. I love seeing him just let go and I thought ya'll might like it too. Enjoy.

P.S. Gold star to all of you who know the song we're dancing to.
