Hello Spring, Goodbye Cold & Flu Season


Wednesday was the first warm day here so far this year.  It was quite refreshing and we spent the entire morning outside strolling around the neighborhood and playing at the park.  I'd like to point out to my Southern friends that though it was warm, the kids are still bundled.  It was 'Northern warm,' which basically just means that the sun was out and actually shining.  So, no flip flops yet! 

But, Thursday Nella was a little sick.  I'm hoping that it was the last bout of sickness for the season. 


She was extra pitiful that afternoon so I couldn't resist taking a picture.  Yes, she has a paci (three, actually).  Yes, we still give them to her at bedtime.  Yes, we let her have them that afternoon.  How could we not?!  Look at that pitiful girl!  And, yes, we know we should probably be getting rid of the pacis for good.  We'll work on that.  Anyway, here she's resting on the couch watching, Rudolph.  
   

That's right.  Rudolph.  She's always asking to watch it.  I always tell her she can't watch that until we have a Christmas tree up in our home.  But I caved, because, that pitiful face!


Nella wasn't the only sick one.  Apparently her baby was under the weather too.  Nella set her up in the swing to get better.  And if you're wondering, Nella's baby doesn't have a name.  But, her baby's baby is named 'Baby Peanut.'

Aww, poor little girl. I would've given her everything she wanted, too.

Wow, Nella looks like such a big girl in that stroller, like she's 3 or 4! Hope she's feeling better!
