The Many Faces of Evie...

Genius

Holy Canoli, I just have one thing to say tonight. NUK GENIUS! It is just that. Genius.
Evie will not take a pacifier....never thought I would want my baby to take a paci so badly. I've tried 2 types so far. She has reached the point where she is unable to fall asleep unless she's nursing. A tired momma and an over-tired (and at times inconsolable) 4 month old who just cannot fall asleep. I had to find something...so...a trip to Meijer at midnight tonight. The paci aisle. I studied them all, and then I spotted it. The Genius. It's new! I bought it. I boiled it. I stuck it in her mouth. She gagged. I thought it was over. Then, I laid her down and I tried it again. She took it, she turned her head, she closed her eyes...she sucked and sucked. She fell asleep. Amen and goodnight.

Sweet Milestones

Evie belly laughed for Amelia and I today.! Nothing sweeter. Although her first belly laugh was for Grandma Claudia last week. I missed that one but managed to capture it today. :)

Roll Over Day!

Two big milestones in a weeks time! Evie rolled over, and over and over again! Just out of the blue. Big stuff!

Meatloaf all around...

Lounging after a bath...so serious.

Sister love

At dinner time, I asked who might be interested in some leftover meatloaf. "Who wants meatloaf for dinner?" I called out to the masses. Amelia said, "I do!" Ford called out, "I do! Evie does!" The he said, "Just kidding, Evie can't have meatloaf." Amelia replied quite seriously, "Yes, she can. If mom eats it then Evie can have milk-loaf."
