Times like these

It seems lately that we all have just wanted to put our heads in the coffee mug. Sleep has been a scarce thing for us the past few days. I feel as if we are on the up and up though. We are still recovering from that horrendous fever BellaRose had the other day. Worth took her to the doctor yesterday morning just make sure everything was okay, and it was (hey we are first time parents over here). Doc just said she is probably still sore from the fever and that is why she is not sleeping, also I just know she is getting some molars, she has not stopped grinding on her hands.
Every morning we have "family fun time", Worth goes and gets Sweet Girl and makes coffee. We have coffee in bed while we all hang out. This is what BellaRose does EVERY TIME she sees the coffee mug. I guess this is what she thinks we do, which is almost pretty accurate. She sits there and sloppers all over the mug breathing heavy. It is a sight to behold!



Little Bean got her big girl car seat the other day, a gift from Big Poppa and T-love for her birthday. Although she is far from being a big girl as she only weighs 16 lbs "something" ounces (Worth went to the doc not me, so that is the weight you will get). I could not believe she has only gained a few ounces in the past couple of months. I am not sure if you have seen this baby eat, but she can chow. She is just getting taller and and taller, but gaining no weight (I might just be a little jealous). So we got the big girl car seat b/c she is just way too tall for the baby one now. Oh this just makes a mother want to cry!
We went to the lake at camp yesterday to take the dogs and Worth for a swim, and let Rainy jump off the diving board. I just had to put BellaRose in her bathing suit and cover up even though there was no way she was getting in that cold water. Come on, how cute is my little baby!

We had horrible wind the other day. It was almost apocalyptic. I was terrified and Worth who would probably be a hurricane chaser thought the wind was "a bit much". We woke up the next morning and fared pretty well compared to most people around. Enormous trees were down all over Black Mountain. Hundred year old trees just gave up the fight. I often wonder about that, why a tree just comes down one day after battling so many storms. I guess they just got tired, sometimes I think I understand.

Got to go on a bike ride yesterday. BellaRose was screaming not wanting to go to sleep as it has been the past couple of days and I just had to get out! Worth suggested I ride my bike, and that I did. It has been awhile, and I only rode to the bank, but it was still glorious. I hope to get out on the ole cruiser a little bit more now. Look how beautiful she is, cleans right up.
