Sick Day

Natalia was sick the past few days with high fevers and a sore throat. She really didn't feel good but we tried to make the best of it.  She ate very little and so Devin took us out for Jamba Juice. Not a bad way to treat a cold or whatever she had. I also let her watch a few more episodes of Dora then she normally is allowed and we hung a hammock in between the doors.

Laila"s first tooth

O.k the moment has arrived. Laila"s first tooth broke through on April 7 or 8th. I hope it doesn't take long for the others to come. I can't imagine weeks and months of aching, throbbing gums.

She will use anything to chew on!

Another accomplishment I need to record that happened this week. She scooted from Natalia's room to the kitchen. She thought that was so fun that she now is scooting everywhere and getting into a lot of trouble, for example: she found a lipstick of mine and smeared it all over her clothes, the wall, the white rug, she seemed to have loved ever minute of it.



Birthday cake

I thought it would be fun to decorate a cake for Natalia this year. I don't think I will ever do it again. I am not talented enough to take my ideas and bring them to life, but i tried. I feel bad because I had done some fun things for Natalia's little get together but I forgot to take pictures. I did however take pictures of the decorations and cake. The pictures didn't turn out that good but I can still remember how excited she got when she woke up and saw the house was decorated just for her. She was so shocked and excited when she saw her cake.

Slumber party with cousins

We had the opportunity to watch Hanna and Julia over the weekend. It was a perfect time because Natalia’s birthday was that same weekend. I think that made her feel very special to play and have a slumber party with her cousins.

We played outside and then had the girls take a bath. Devin combed their hair.
