More Craziness

Okay, as usual it took all morning to do this post. It's a crazy life. But we're surviving. This was over a week ago when Annaliese still had some jaundice, but I just couldn't believe that her hair got so curly when it's wet. Kalia's never did that, so we'll see if that means anything in the future.

Well, I am having MAJOR strong cravings...for french bread (I eat like, half a loaf a day) and cookie dough ice cream, and LOFTHOUSE COOKIES. BaD BaD I know, but I'm indulging anyway.

The funny part happened this morning. I was trying to upload pictures here and I turn around and guess who discovered my stash....

The part I haven't figured out yet is how she got them off the kitchen counter. I'm totally baffled. I found crumbs in her bedroom and in the living room in several places, including all over the bouncy chair. (Maybe she shared with Annaliese?) Seriously, you turn around for ONE MINUTE...


I took this picture yesterday.

Annaliese is staying awake more now, for about an hour at a time. She really likes to be held, meaning she stops crying as soon as I pick her up. I am getting good use out of a NoJo Babysling that someone gave me. It held her in even when I was bathing Kalia and washing her hair.

I think she just went through a growth spurt, my milk supply just shot up. Saturday night we sang at our stake conference, and in the three hours that we were gone I felt my milk let down SIX TIMES! What the heck!

Samuel is finally getting to bond with baby. I think I've been hogging her. I just love this tiny newborn stage, it passed too quickly the first time.

I forgot to mention that my mom was here for several days (her hair is growing back, it looks pretty good, eh? She's going to bleach it soon.) Anyway, I just could not believe how wonderful it felt to be taken care of and waited on like that. She not only cooked and helped with the girls but she sewed/mended anything I could find for her, and she scrubbed my apartment from top to bottom and I just hope she knows how grateful I am for her help and I had a great time chatting with her all day. (And I cried when she left.)

We're still working on proper baby etiquette, and here she is giving her a little eye poke.

And, last but not least, the little stinker made my morning by performing this dance. I'm glad we have this Dora on DVR so that she can watch it (and dance) to her heart's content.
