my daughter is a munster!

May 19, 2009

I really hate to say it, but I think Jimmy may be right -- look at our daughter's hairline -- she looks like Eddie Munster!!!

So Jimmy had the day off today and the new UFC games came out as well. So he got up at 9:30 this morning and went down to the FYE to trade in some of the games he doesn't play much any more and get his UFC game.

And then, of course, he had to play it all day. (c: (It is pretty cool looking).

Lil Miss LOVES her reflection -- she is absolutely fascinated by that gorgeous baby in the mirror!

Lil Miss was a sleepy baby today. Maybe she's growing again? She's already at 22 inches (I measured her when she was sleeping this morning, when I was measuring her pack and play so I can make a mattress pad for it). She would wake up to eat and she was awake for maybe an hour total when we were at work this morning, maybe thirty minutes between when we got home at 3:30 and when she woke up at 6. Then she was awake from 6 until she fell asleep at 9 on the dot.

But all that time she wanted to be a snuggle bunny too -- she wanted to be held. I don't mind, o course, but she is getting rather heavy. I'm going to have to get the nutritionist to weigh her tomorrow -- she's got to be almost ten pounds now, if not over.

See? She's our little snuggle bug!

Lil Miss can't decide if she likes the bath. I'll have to get some pictures of her bath tomorrow night. She knows she likes the warm water, but she's not so sure about the whole washing the face and hair thing. She tends to look at me like I'm trying to drown her or something if any water gets poured on her face. It's actually kind of funny. She's cute when she comes out though, even if she does scream (though I can understand that -- it gets COLD all of a sudden when you get out of that warm water!)

Oh! We tried a new place for dinner tonight (cause I SO did not feel like cooking -- my arms are tired (and I'm tired in general) and I still think I'm a little sick). This new BBQ place that opened up. I was a little weary of it -- I have yet to have good BBQ down here (though, I will admit, I'm extremely picky), but a friend of Jimmy's said it was good, so we decided to give it a try. He had ribs, I had pulled pork.

It's not Loves or the BBQ from that place in Macon that we love (but I can't remember the name of), but it was pretty damn good. Especially for this little Southern girl who hasn't really had BBQ in probably about two years. It's going to have to go on our list of places to keep in mind. And they deliver, which is always nice.

Okay, I have a couple of things to do for work before Charles gets back from Philly tomorrow and then, Mommy's going to take a bath and read. (Once Lil Miss goes down at 9, she doesn't wake up to be fed before 1 am. Usually it's closer to 2 or even 3). And then? Sleeeeeeep.

Watching Daddy dress her after her bath (the green thing is one of her towels -- Jimmy loves it cause it's bright and obnoxious)

  2. You should check tonight's blog -- there's a better picture. One where it WASN'T blow dried! (But thanks -- glad you like it. I do!)

    And yes -- Fresh Air! That's it! I told Jimmy that whenever we drive up to Decatur, we have to drive through Macon so we can get some.
