They grow up so fast...

Let me first start off by sharing a huge praise with you all the Q is finally over her funk... actually is was "primary herpes simplex". I get cold sores and as a result exposed my daughter to the virus, since she had not antibodies in her system she broke out with sores all over the inside of her mouth, tongue, and gums. It also forced her body to work overtime and gave her a fever for 8 days and left her not wanting to eat due to pain for almost two weeks. Oh, what fun it was for us, but now that she has gotten the first infection, she will more than likely only have one blister during subsequent infections. So, if you or anyone you know gets cold sores, STAY AWAY from little kids so they don't have to deal with what Q did; honestly it sucks (sorry for the language Mom and Grammy).

P has been trying for a couple weeks to find her thumb and finally on Saturday (with a little help from Di Di) she got it. If there is no paci near you can hear her smacking her lips to get to her thumb.

Sunday was a bit emotional for B and I as we were getting ready to go to church. Q was all dressed up and wearing her backpack when B looked at her and said so sadly, "It looks like she is going to school". Now, I have never been one for homeschooling, but after the thought of having her leave us for school one day, I did get a bit emotional... I'll blame it on hormones, all B has is the fact he is wrapped around her little finger.


P is growing like a weed as well. She has found her voice and loves to hear herself talk. She is also awake more during the day and as long as she isn't pooping, she is all smiles! B and I looked at each other on Monday and could hardly believe that she is already 7 weeks old.

Finally, here is a shot at what happens when Q takes a bath. Now everyone can understand why Q want's B to give her a bath. The best is when they ambush me or shoot me as I walk past while vacuuming or with something in my hands. Yes, this is why I love my life!
