video Tuesday: lil loves her papa

Poor Papa. He's feeling lousy, overworked, over-tired, and just plain sick. He's coughing, runny, drippy, and rundown. And if you weren't feeling enough pity for him yet, you should know it's his birthday. Yup. What did the man do to deserve this?! 

There was, however, one bright spot in this sore, sorry story. His little bird swooped in and saved the day with hugs, smiles, and laughter. Such a sunny, silly girl. I think he was beginning to perk up just a little after her pre-bedtime visit.

She's just so darling when she's not wearing pants, isn't she?

wardrobe malfunction

Poor Lil!  She was supposed to have little ruffled bloomers that matched this top, but they don't stay up on her tiny waist.  Once again, she was left bottomless, with nothing more than a diaper to keep those buns covered.  It never seems to matter much to Lil.  She has a take-'em-or-leave-'em attitude toward pants of all kinds.  But it makes Mama wonder if there is a market for baby suspenders.

Shoes, however, are another story.  Lil has made it quite clear that even for a pre-walker, shoes have a place in her everyday wardrobe.  Even if they're not made for walking, they're certainly made for teething.
