Little girls are fun.

We have had a little visitor. Her name is Ariana (sp?). She's 1 years old. Her Mommy has been in the hospital and she's been staying with us and another friend until family can get into town. Oh my goodness she's adorable. Huge brown eyes and dark curly hair (obviously not my child huh?). She's a little monkey who loves to climb all over you but mostly just wants to be held. This means that while she's here...nothing gets done besides taking care of her. It's not bad but it has thrown a wrench in our scheduling here's how it went this morning.

I didn't know what time she'd get up so I set my alarm early so I could get up, dressed, and eat before I woke her up. No such luck. As the alarm is going off I hear this baby screaming that sends me running into her room. She of course of fine but I'd just had a heartattack. Not use to that kind of attention getting activities. So...Chris and I got to play tag-team. I'm pretty sure Chris is in love with her. He was very anxious to know if she'd be coming over again tonight.

Nathan has been a great helper. He plays and holds her when I have something else I HAVE to do. While it has been fun I have to hand it to mom's w/young ones. I forgot how much energy it takes and how you never get anything done around the house. She is a great snuggler though and so much fun to dress.

Small picture but maybe this one will help. FYI-The high temperatures here aren't even our lows here in the south. I am so excited I can hardly see straight. Now to find my sweatshirts.

Count down begins.

Less then 2 weeks until we get to go on vacation here...A few of you know where this is but don't spoil the surprise.
