Sick Days

It has been much too long since my last post, and no, I haven't had the new baby yet. Friday of last week, Bronwen came down with a nasty fever, and was miserable all through the weekend. The fever broke on Monday, but morphed into a head cold. Bronwen has been sneezing and coughing, as have I. The two of us were a bit of a mess for a day or two. Things are much better now, but we're still not quite up to our usual adventures and mishaps. Bronwen is handling things like a trooper! Picture is blurry; apparently I am still functioning below par.Due to feeling poorly, Bronwen has been indulging in some special activities, such as watching her favorite film: "The Muppet Movie."

Introducing Sprout!

I went to my 37-week appointment on Friday, and because my uterus was keeping the baby so well contained (I was "measuring small"), I had to go in for an ultrasound. The good news--the baby is fine; s/he is measuring right on schedule and has plenty of fluid to play around in. The better news--I got some pictures I can share!

So without further ado--introducing Bronwen's brother or sister--Sprout!

Hoppy Easter!

Since I will probably be giving birth or taking care of a newborn come Easter day, here is my Easter post! :-)And just for comparison purposes...these were last Easter.

A Perfect 10

No one was more surprised at this feat than T.J. and I. We couldn't believe it--neither of us had been working purposely with her on her counting, except up to 4. Then she goes and shows off:


Yay Bronwen! My memory was full at the end, and sadly, you miss her saying, "Fist bump" which is what we do last. Oh well.

We'll be up to 50 next week, I'm sure. :-)

Happy St. Patrick's Day everyone! Bronwen manufactured a special holiday curl for the occasion!

Weekend Fun

These pics were taken a couple of weeks ago (March 8th). Just to show you Bronwen as she is enjoying her kitchen. Here she is retrieving something from the sink:
It was a cup, into which she put one of her round blocks.
The round block must be a tasty beverage, as she gives a sip to Jerry.My Bronwen loves to share, and decided Mollie wanted a taste as well! (Mollie really didn't, but she also didn't move)


Randomness:
Giant cat!Me in the kitchen, while the kitchen shenanigans were taking place. I was making cookies, and looking tired.

Towers and Perserverence

I don't know why the lighting is so bad--I had a lamp and the overhead lights on--ugh! Still, you can see well-enough, I suppose. This was yesterday morning.



Thanks to Barbara for bringing the panda back from China. Bronwen loves it :-)

Healthy Glow

T.J. gives Bronwen her bath each night. Little did I know that this is what goes on afterwards. I have noticed T.J.'s skin has been especially soft.






Bronwen certainly understands the importance of moisturizing.
