No, no, no

Ever wonder what phrase Mommy & Daddy use?

Bookclub Bound

Hopefully, the next generation of our bookclub begins here.

What Happens

when you have an almost 11 month old who has been battling a double ear infection for 6 weeks, yes weeks, along with cutting her top two teeth?

Someone who's a little groggy; 4 hours worth of naps today after 12 hours of sleep last night and a little opinionated.

One who's so tired of me trying to get a peek at her teeth, tired of the doctors prodding around her throat and ears, and tired of taking medicine she often clamps her jaws shut.

But, there are moments when our Molly comes through and we see that this is a temporary state of mind. And how blessed we are!

Changes

The weather is turning cool, the leaves are falling, and Molly's independence is causing changes in our household.

To begin with, we must ensure that there are many books available at all times in all places! She loves books: big ones, small ones, magazines, newspapers, you name it. It certainly makes her mommy proud!

She is such a good "helper" in the kitchen! We now have to worry about hot stoves and sharp objects.

Molly's completely mobile and Alec learned the hard way that anything under 3 feet is fair game when Molly got into his school binder and began emptying it all over the living room!

And then today, Molly pulled up on the ottoman for the first time! Before long, she'll be cruising throughout the house.

Although these new discoveries don't allow us much down time anymore, we wouldn't have it any other way!
