Oh the weather outside is frightful, but you are so very delightful!
Phoebe Jane is now five weeks old and she smiles! And also makes a lot of other funny faces as she discovers the world… It’s so gratifying when your baby starts to smile, isn’t it? They are oblivious to the dust bunnies, mountain(s) of dishes, ubiquitous spit-up. They are just happy to be cozily snuggled up with a full tummy. Aah, if life could only stay so simple… Thanks, Phoebe, for brightening up these gloomy early winter days!
lately. We’ve read it at least once a day for the past week and were inspired to try the gingerbread recipe that’s illustrated throughout the story. It’s a really good one – I was surprised that Wren liked them because they are a bit “spicy,” but she does. Or maybe it’s just the act of biting off their heads and limbs that she likes. Regardless, we’re getting our required holiday share of ginger and cinnamon these days. Oh, and butter. It’s really no wonder why I’m not shedding the baby weight very quickly this time around… sigh.
