Out with the sick, in with the new.


My baby was so completely sick. It was wretched. But it is done, thankfully, and since she's recovered, she is an entirely NEW little girl! She's totally different and changed. It was like the entire time she was sick and could barely move or breathe, she was thinking of all the fun things she wanted to do when she got better. I was looking at these pre-sick photos today and could not believe how little she was! ...and it's only a two week difference. Crazy cool! ...and crazy sad. I do like the thrill of her progress but I HATE saying goodbye to her babydom. All the while the only thing that can console me is the thought (the IMMEDIATE thought) of having another one as soon as possible.




We pulled this 30-year-old pink dress out of our cedar chest in Pine Valley only none of us can remember me wearing it so we are wondering if Grandma Polly saved it from someone else's D.I. pile. Oh how I hope it's mine though, it's fantastic! Anyone recognize it?





AND... the most wonderful sight in the entire world:
Those little feet poking out melt my heart!

I'm glad little Annie is recovered. I don't recognize the dress, and am pretty sure it is none of ours. It looks way cute on her.

Love her adorable face and glad she's feeling better.

Whenever Brandon would rock Anika, he wouldn't come back. I'd eventually go check to find both of them asleep listening to the white noise on B's crank radio.

Such a cute little dress! Not mine:) Sad little sickles pictures-i'm SO glad she is better! Abbi and Liv are better now too FINALLY-and I owe it all to opting out of church for two weeks in a row, isn't that sad? Regardless, it worked, and I am glad. Annie looks so grown and different-love it!! I am fascinated by growing/learning/progressing babies.
I am also watching...actually, glued- to the Bachelor this season-love it. Can't believe his racetrack mistake even though we all know the producers probably plan every date & who goes...
on another note-we are carefully contemplating coming down to Tommy's homecoming...we shall see:)
