alex's first "real" bath

since we have a real belly button now, we decided to have our first real bath tonight @ 3 weeks 2 days! hooooray- she liked this much better than her sponge baths:

ignore my massive mams & marvel at her cuteness. heh :)

belly button!

so as i was hauling alex up & onto my shoulder, i hear a little "plink" and look down at the floor- dun dun dun:
someone lost her umbi cooooord! woot!


i grabbed it right before cessna did ::gag:: and promptly took a picture. i'll let the husband see it when he gets home & then into the trash it'll go!

how does something so nasty fall off of something so cute? case in point:

hmmmm....anyway.

alex decided to spend most of today AWAKE (shocking) so we had a good time "playing"- that equals her on her play mat & me staring at her- poor thing.

she did go to sleep about 2 hours ago so i made the husband's favorite dinner of all time:

kielbasa & potatoes. he's gonna be thrilled. i was going to make apple dumplings, but i'm missing about...all of the ingredients. so tomorrow.

and that's that! the husband will be home any minute now (yay) and that = operation day 1 home alone: completed!

House tonight & hopefully a baby that will wake up to eat, see her father & go back to sleep for the night!!!
