Michael Phelps says its ok to pee in the pool ginny,

...however, he did not say it is ok to poop, which is what she did, in her bathwater on Tuesday!

In other news, she sat in high chair last night for the first time! Yesterday we went to pick up the high chair pad, which is super cute, just like Ginny. It fit so well I was really excited. Anyhow b/c she has been holding her head up so good, and is wanting to sit up on me, and tries to sit up in her bouncer I thought we'd give it a shot. I put some blankets in on the sides of her, to take up the extra space, and she did so well! While we had dinner she played with her toys and emitted cuteness. I will post some pictures later, she seems to be waking up now for lunch!

cuteness

well, our baby is cute, in case you haven't noticed. The degree of cuteness seems to multiply exponentially everday. Today Sassy and I did a ton of laundry. It is also vacuum day, which I guess I will have to take care of later tonite. There is always something. I also worked on her photo album, which I have sadly barely started. We also spent some time, diaper free, under her gym. We did that for about 40 minutes, she peed twice. Thank goodness for waterproof mats. She has a bad dipaer rash that sprang up over nite, it is everywhere.. so I thought a good airing out would help, and it does seem better. Today after "tummy time" she was rolled over on her back, and that is how she fell asleep, in the living room. She did that yesterday too. So hopefully this will be one step towards napping in the play pen at some point. She will not take her long nap anywhere else but the swing, for now at least. I tired yesterday to put her in the crib at the designated time, all she did was cry. She was out like a light as soon as she got in the swing and got her blankie.

Dad is home now, so time to go.

baptism and the election

Here is a quick update on Ginny. Last week her MD Grandparents and Uncle Brian came down for a visit to celebrate her baptism. She did wonderful at church and looked like a little angel in her gown! A couple people, including a pastor, have inquired as to how much tylenol i give her to make her behave so well.. I didn't know this was something that occurred often enough for people to actually suspect that when they encouter a good baby. Ginny is absolutely wonderful, we are so blessed. When she is crying it is for a reason, she usually passes gas or poops shortly there after, or has a quick meltdown before naptime. Put the blankie next to her face and she is out!!

She has rediscovered her thumb, and now uses that more often that a combo of two fingers. A family friend of bill's parents sent down a crinkle book that has two ends she can chew on. it is pooh of course, and she loves the bright colors, crinkle sound, and the chew board. Yesterday at the Dr she was 12lbs 15ozs!! That is so hard to believe.

Yesterday she went with her Dad and I to vote. We walked there as the polling station was at UL, at the rec center behind our neighborhood. she looked cute in her coordinating outfit, and got an " i voted" sticker to wear home. She is not happy with the outcome, although our state voted for the right choice.. haha. She would like to step up our plan to move to Ireland. Good thing Bill's brother is a pilot. I Know Grandma is reading this right now and cringing about that flight- but jsut think, you only have ONE plane to get on, and they are huge!!! Brian says they are often not at full capacity- you might even get first class!!! :DD
