We have had fun watching Sissy change from her newborn stage into a little baby girl. She is starting to really smile at us a lot, but still can't catch it on camera. The camera itself is too amusing for her so she just stares at the big black object that's in her face.
This week has been hard for all of us as Graham has had another cold. He hasn't been sleeping and he didn't get to go to Mother's Day Out on Tuesday so we were a bit worn out by Thursday.We are trying to teach a toddler what gentle and sweet mean when around Sissy. I've resorted to just saying "no toys" around the baby because he inevitably hits her on the head with them and then we have ourselves another fiasco. Since she doesn't care for a pacifier, the only way to calm her down right now is with mylecon drops. Thankfully it works but I may be creating a bad habit. Well, for now, whatever works is my motto.
Our friends, the McFadden's, invited us to the lake last weekend. We had a wonderful trip and enjoyed the much needed fellowship away from the house. It was the beginning of Graham's cold so you can see that he is not at all impressed with the boat or the tube. We'll try again another day.
Our attempt at a family picture.
"Mommy, Mommy, Mommy is all we heard. He wanted back on the boat with me and then he yelled Daddy, Daddy. He wanted Michael to join us. I convinced him that Daddy was going to have fun and he would be okay.
