This girl…

OLYMPUS DIGITAL CAMERA

This girl is amazing.

This girl is tolerating a very different way of doing things and she’s smiling through it. (Most of the time…)

This girl has to work harder at taking a drink of milk than you  or I do during a one-hour workout. 

But…This girl is doing it. And well.

This girl adores her big sister. 

This girl can do just about everything better and faster than her big sister.

But this girl cheers her big sister on consistently, celebrating every little thing like it’s a major event.

These little girls make me smile.

These little girls make me crazy sometimes.

These little girls frustrate me to no end on some days.

But these little girls are blessings. Just as they are.

Lord, give me the wisdom to raise these little girls in the way you know is best.

Multi-mothering

Last week, Jen , Mark, and Sophie came to town for Sophie's ear tube placement at SLCH . We met up after the procedure at the Galleria so Jen could snag some shoes for Sophie (not that she was able to get what she wanted, unfortunately, but the Robeez Sophie got were super cute!). The double stroller we have is very good, it maneuvers very smoothly and opens and folds up really easily. Since it's so easy to deal with, I thought I'd add another task or two to the situation... Most of you know that you can click on the pictures in any post and they'll open up bigger. But in case you can't see clearly enough... Is there a law against driving a double stroller with one hand while holding a newborn with the other while holding the bottle with my chin?? (No, but there should be a law against that double chin that is created with this position!)

BabyLegs Giveaway

That's right! A BabyLegs Giveaway!! BUT...this giveway has an extra dose of generosity required for the participants. Can you handle it? BabyLegs has been so great to us, and they have surprised me once again! It all started back when the superb Tricia and Little Miss G sent Braska a pair many moons ago. We'd seen them on a few of our little blog friends, and I thought they were adorable. And the idea of keeping Braska warm while being able to access her g-tube without having to undress her was very appealing. So when we received our surprise pair from our friends out East, we were just plain giddy! I quickly ordered several more pairs to go with her wardrobe. It didn't take anytime at all for BabyLegs to become my standard gift at baby showers, and I especially loved sending them to moms that I found who had fresh little new babies with DS. They're perfect for everyday with a long-sleeved onesie, they are great under a little dress, and they are so helpful with thera...
