A little scattered

I would like to start this post with everyone's appreciation of our beautiful new futon! It's so pretty... And squishy. I love it. You don't realize how wonderful a sofa is until you don't have one for two months. :) The best part is...we can now have guests stay over. Lots of room and a soft bed to sleep in.

This picture is for Grandma D. So the story goes, Grandma D sent us all kinds of wonderful toys and gifts for the baby in her new place. And one of these was an inflatable safety bath for Melly. I blew it up in the living room room to see what it would end up looking like. And Miss. Mell went right over to it and climbed right in. So, it has stayed in the living room as a baby play gym. And here she is, enjoying it. Thank you Grandma D.

And another story behind this one...
As most of you know, for the first several months of Melly's life we tried to get her to use a pacifier. She flat out refused. So after a while we gave up trying. On the day we arrived in C Ms. Mell went over to her toy basket, picked up a pacifier and has been very content with one ever since. (Strange kid.) She is very agreeable with it and doesn't want it when she is trying to sleep. But loves to crawl around with one in her mouth and holding on to one or two others.

And last but not least... We have one bookshelf in the living room that she will not leave alone. And on the shelf there is one book she goes after every time... And here it is... Definitely her daddy's child.
