Big days for our big girl!

Ahhhh! It seems like Emie is growing up so fast! On Friday, we had her ears pierced. She is such a tough cookie and barely cried at all. They are very cute and I think she wears them well.






She sported a very cute hat that I've been so excited for her to wear. She wore it for one of our first outdoor walks since the fall. She wore it while she went for her first ride on the swings and she loved it! I'm not sure how I ended up with two fearless children, but I did. I had to run back and forth between them to keep both swings going as they apparently do not like to be motionless. I wish I had gotten a better picture on the swing, but I did not :( So, I thought at least I'd post one of the hat.





She started army crawling a few weeks ago and now she is moving to crawling on all fours, or "creeping" in PT language. She's not too fast yet, but I'm sure I'll be running soon! She's also starting to pull up to stand, but that activity has resulted in a few near head injuries and would not be suitable for video taping.

Free Dog!

So, not to be blunt about poop, but that is the topic of this post. Nathan has always had some of the nastiest diapers imaginable. I always thought they were unusually nasty, but now that I have a second child who is eating solids, I can without a doubt say that they are in their own league of nastiness. Anyways, this morning, my poor boy had a full blowout, funky poop. And naturally, it did not happen on the potty this time. And naturally, he was wearing a cloth diaper. So, I swiftly de-diaper my poor little boy and realize that a full bath is in order. I wrap the funkified diaper in his funkified jammies and place it near the basement stairs while I get him into the bath. As I'm cleaning him up and filling the bath, I hear a licking sound coming from that very spot where the diaper was left. Yes, Bailey had decided to take the cleaning of the funkified diaper into her own paws.

Okay, so she's not really up for grabs. I do love that disgusting pup. But she has been on crate arrest for most of the day and has had a very thorough brushing of her teeth.
