I added a little logo to my photography. It's just a test right now, just to see how it looks, and to prevent people from stealing my freakin' awesome photos of my super adorable daughter.

Oh, and I'm beginning to feel better. I'm still a little hoarse, and I have a stupid cough, but I feel so much better than I did last week.

(I used Flickr to post to my blog. I'm not sure I like it. I'll play around with it some. I'd like the photo to be bigger, for your viewing pleasure...)

Still Sick...

But look at this:

Sorry...

...I haven't blogged. I'm sick. I've got a head cold. My throat hurts and my ears are clogged and I'm dizzified. I'm not really feeling like blogging. But, you can look at this if you'd like:
Dang, she's cute.

Cloth Diapers

Emily has a diaper rash, and the other night it had gotten pretty bad. I thought that maybe she needed bigger diapers so she could have more "breathing room" down south. I sent Rob to the store to get diapers in the next size up, and while we waited for him to come home, I put a cloth diaper on Em. I've never put a cloth diaper on a baby before. I had no clue what to do. This is how it ended up looking:

Talk about junk in the trunk!

My Little Girl

...is getting so big.

Near Spider Attack!

Whew! Almost got eaten alive by this spider! I coulda died, or peed my pants. More likely I would have peed my pants, but still...

He was probably the size of the diamond on my wedding ring. So it was freakin' huge!!! Well, not really. He was tiny. I didn't notice the long hairs on his legs until I looked at the photo in Photoshop. Yick. And uck. I have goosebumps. Gotta go.

Fluke (n)

1. an accidental advantage; stroke of good luck.
2. an accident or chance happening.
3. an accidentally successful stroke, as in billiards.

It was a fluke that Emily slept through the night, night before last. Dang it.

Little Miss Sunshine

After a good night's sleep, Emily woke up all grins this morning.

Don't Move a Muscle

Don't say a word. Leave the TV off for just a bit longer.

These are things I'm telling myself this morning. Because Emily is still asleep! It's nearly 8:30. She slept the whole night. The.whole.night! I'm so excited because it means I slept, too! Not the whole night because she did make a noise and I went and checked on her and she was fine but then I couldn't go back to sleep but eventually I did. Anyway, she's still breathing, I checked. Last night was the first night ever that she went to bed without nursing! I have mixed feelings about this because it's such a special bonding time we have, but then I think about what a big girl she is and she doesn't need my milk anymore. Oh, I just got sad again. But, now I'm happy again because SHE SLEPT THROUGH THE NIGHT!

Mini Me

I know she looks like me, but sometimes it's freaky to see how much we look alike.

Hey!

Happy Fourth of July!
