Sweetimers

Sweetimers--(short i sound) a common word in our house meaning the sweetest thing in the world!
Mama Susie and I took little Miss Margaret to the park this week and tried out the swing. She loved it, so peaceful and relaxing. (Considering she hated her stationary swing in our house, it was pretty surprising. Although, this swing was a little different--Mommy pushes it and gives the little cutie attention. She's not stupid!)

I love her closed-lip smile! It makes her eyes look like Daddy's.

Has anyone seen my hair? Granddaddy Bob?

Action shot--those little legs were just kicking away!




We continued to have a very eventful week. Margaret started Monday with a little runny nose, no fever or rash. However, the drainage caused her to cough and gag. Unfortunately, Thursday afternoon this drainage problem really got to her, because the poor thing threw-up all over herself and her carseat. Sweet potatoes completely covered everything! I could have handled a little vomit, but she could not quite clear her throat and continued to throw-up for the next thirty minutes. So we headed straight to the pediatrician's office to investigate. The pediatrician didn't hear any congestion in her lungs (thank-goodness) and said that we better be on the safe side and give her pedialyte for the next 24 hours to make sure it wasn't a bug. (We ended up giving her breastmilk that evening, because she was really distraught without it.) Luckily, she was vomit-free the rest of the night and the next day. So it probably was just some drainage causing her to gag (lovely, I know).
All this to say, we had to take a bath that afternoon and Miss Moo was quite taken with this precious beauty in the mirror!

Who are you?

She tried to reach out and touch her---adorable!

I referred to her closed-lip smile earlier. Well this is her mouth-open smile---just as cute and in my opinion makes her look like Daddaddy.

Finally, I'll end with a video. Mama Susie was trying to keep Margaret happy in Babies "R" Us one afternoon, while I finished shopping for essentials. She found this cute little bear, pulled the legs, put it down in front of Margaret, and this is what happened---
