Cuddle Bunny

After a busy weekend with activities both Friday and Saturday night, we were very happy to have a slow, laid back family day on Sunday. We started the morning with breakfast together on the couch…all HG would eat was Fruit Loops from her daddy’s bowl. He started calling it ‘chick feed’ because she would hold her little mouth open so he could drop it in…over and over and over. Too cute!

We only left the house for a monster trip to the grocery store and Sonic and came home to get back in our pjs. HG was hamming it up for her daddy, and he got some cute pics for her cuddling. He also caught her kissing the mirror hanging on the door in our bathroom. She loves to kiss herself!

And I do have to make a confession…tonight we were sitting at the table eating some angel hair pasta for dinner. HG was sitting in my lap, and we had a little trouble with her trying to maintain control of the long noodles. (I later found one stuck to her chest, under her dress.) So to fix this problem, I attempted to bite the noodles off and then put the shorter portion into her mouth….but unfortunately, I had the same problem she had with maintaining control of the slippery little boogers, and the noodles fell straight off the fork and onto Helen Grace’s head! Of course, John thought this was the funniest thing ever and almost fell out of his chair. And we soon took her straight to the bath tub! Fun times as always at the Toohig table!

Oh, and an update on the BA BA- we haven’t used a bottle at our house in the last week! I think we have finally kicked the habit. It is a little more of a fight than normal at bedtime without that last bottle, but she will usually settle down after a few books and some rocking with Mama. She has taken to sitting next to me in the rocker while we read- she is such a copy cat and wants to do exactly what you are doing!
