Lily





Another water lily bloomed yesterday in our little pond; it's been about 6 weeks since we had one bloom. The fish act like a pack or a tribe rather than a school. They are so fast and very "Lord of the Flies." Aedyn loves to watch them when we feed them.

Here he is during naptime. Caught in the bars. Awake. Happy, at least. If I could find a crib with sides like a milk crate I would consider buying the ugly thing because Aedyn is always getting a leg or 2 stuck.

Eric took this picture last week in the late afternoon sun. It's been amazing how many times Eric has been able to come home in time to feed Aedyn his veggies. It was our prayer that E would see the baby awake every day--not easy with a resident's schedule. We've visited at the hospital some and Eric races home. Aedyn seems surprised when I'm the one holding his spoon full of carrots. Must be papa's gig.

Hannita might visit in a few weeks. My parents are driving over from western Nebraska in 3 weeks. We leave for Roatan in 6 weeks. Yeah life!

Missing you.

I know crib bumpers get a bad rap, but my sister can't live without one since her daughter's legs kept getting stuck also!!

That white fabric pressed down by the baby's leg: bumper pad. Breathable bumper because he always slept in the co-sleeper with his head pressed against the mesh side. So I thought the breathable bumper would work well but Aedyn outsmarted it.
