7 Weeks Old...Too Pooped To Party

Due to spending so much time taking pictures for our "Valentines Day Extravaganza" she was too tuckered for anything else! But then getting to a whole 7 weeks old is big work when you're this little. And not just for baby...for mommy too! Good lord, I feel like I've aged 7 (or more) years in the last week!


And that's ok. She's been such a great baby today. Right when I was telling her Daddy what a little stinker she'd been lately, she goes and proves me wrong. Don't misunderstand me, lately she HAS been a stinker! She wouldn't let me put her down without screaming her head off all weekend and the better part of last week. She went from being my mild-mannered nocturnal baby to being my little velcro-baby! Stuck to me all the time. And I still haven't gotten the hang of my sling yet.

I don't know about you, but to me, she doesn't look real comfy. Kinda squished if you ask me! I just wish I could figure out how to use it when she's awake. But I think that might just come with time and better neck and head control. I hope anyhow.



I forgot to post this last week. Look at the stitching on her hat! I feel like such a dunce because I got this package on Christmas Eve from my "secret mommy" (part of the January Mommies club I belong to) and there was a hat and scarf and mittens and tons of other goodies in the package. Well I never noticed that the hat was personalized until I put it on her the other day. Adorable!



Well I'd better get back to my little butterbutt. I hear her making noise which means she'll be up from her nap soon and she and I have a date with a nice bubble bath, followed by a book and some cuddling while we watch mommy's favourite snowboarder win gold for the USA!!!!! Shawn White, AKA The Flying Tomato is one of my current favs and I am sooooooo glad he won gold yesterday after his almost wipeout on the qualifying run. Men's Halfpipe Snowboarding is one of my favourites (and men's speedskating too, Apollo better kick some ass soon!) out of the olympics and I DVR'd all the runs last night so I could watch them today. Plus they did an interview with Jake Burton (of Burton snowboards) the "father" of snowboarding and I'm really excited about that. Next to Warren Miller he's one of my favourite people in the winter sports industry. And it doesn't hurt that I own two of his boards!

Yep, it's safe to say that Gidget will probably learn how to board in the next few years!

I wonder if I can get her snowboard in pink?

JUST KIDDING!

Although my Elite 150 is pink and yellow and a deeper pink.....my Burton Baron, which I've never used and probably won't until next year, is a deep pearl black....so cool it's arctic!

Yeahhhh baby, won't be long before we get that kiddo on a board. Well, and her Daddy too. Her Daddy has never boarded before and it outta be fun getting Gareth on a board.
