Emerging from the germs

Well THAT was sure an adventure! Most of February was a blur of busy-ness and sickness. I got the swine flu and spread it to Miss Caroline (which stunk), but we all came out OK in the end, and I have new skills in baby temperature taking, vaporizer filling (one handed!), and pediatrician calling. While we were sick, a lot of things happened, though, that we didn't particularly appreciate at the time ... but are important to record for posterity!
CJ turned four months old.... she's 15 lbs now, and long long long -- in the 87th percentile for height!
Nonna and Big Pop braved the Hazmat zone and came to visit ... and we had a great time! They were a huge help and didn't seem to mind that our only excitement was eating pizza on the couch and watching the Olympics.

It snowed right here in Dixie (thank goodness it melted soon thereafter!)

Caroline is refining her skills with reaching and grabbing. She loves to spend time in her exersaucer playing with all the toys. She lifts her bum up to help with diaper changes now, and is giggling more regularly -- especially when I kiss her belly.

Here's to a healthier and warmer March!

  4. Those eyes! Goodness gracious!

    Is she working on teeth, with those fingers in her mouth?

    So glad to hear that the plague has moved on and you're all feeling better.
