Pictures!

















Lots and Lots of pictures!

We had a fun week. Clare is working on using utensils.

That has worked out to be a giant FAIL!

For example, I put her yummy yogurt in a small bowl and gave her a spoon. She promptly threw the spoon on the floor and tried to drink the yogurt. She dumped the majority of it on her hands and then played in it. Delightful.

So, post lunch baths were a daily occurrence. She loves the bath, so that's fine. It's just gross carrying her upstairs, as far away from me as humanly possible.

She has 2 friends in her bath. Mr. Fish and Mrs. Duck (clearly their married, because Mr. Fish doesn't wear pants and lives with Mrs. Duck in the tub). Also, Mrs. Duck went to Miami for her MRS. Degree. That's how she became Mrs. Duck. She wears a sporty pink bikini top. I think it's a little racy, especially since she already landed Mr. Fish, but she hasn't been willing to discuss it yet. She also wears a visor. She is a gym teacher (sorta). Mostly she teaches Mr. Fish how to pick up after himself.

Anywhoo, I always pronounce things with the first letter of the word sounded out (phonetically).

Example: Mr. Fish is F, F, Fuh, Fuh, Fuh, ish. Fish.
Mrs. Duck is D, D, Duh, Duh, Duh, uck. Duck.

I've now realized I was teaching my daughter a curse word. Please take the first letter of fish and stick on uck. It won't go well if her 4th word is that one. Because I've made a real effort to clean up my language in front of the baby and Chris will never believe this is the way she learned that word. You know I can sell nearly anything, but I'm fairly certain Chris will not be buying that story.

Hope you all had a good weekend!

  1. I cannot believe how big she is getting already! It seemed like she was staying relatively the same size for months and then all of a sudden she's looking more and more like a toddler! Ahhhh! I guess she's going to be a toddler soon! I'll be honest with you April...I don't think any of us would buy your F word story! Ha ha

  3. What happened to a little baby? She looks so big in that tub. We just kept three wash cloths wet on the counter and used them at meal times. It takes three cloths to wipe those hands.

  4. First- lets not project our baggage onto the bath toys, MRS DUCK.
    Second- from the picture, that doesn't look like a racy bikini top as much as a vest, IMO.
    Third- these are some ridiculously ADORABLE pictures.
    Last- tile in the bath is looking awesome.

  5. Thanks to Grandpa Kev (i.e. Big Kev) for the bathroom tile. He really did do an awesome job!
    That "vest" is racy compared to my bathing suit
    And last, I have no idea what you're talking about
    love, mrs. duck:)
