Phew!
The last few weeks, days in particular, have just been nuts….. Oma left on Friday, Christiane and her folks, including all three little kidlets, arrived on Saturday and left on Tuesday, and work has been a complete mess. As you have yet to learn, co-workers can be backstabbing nuisances – anyway….
You’ve been a bit sick from the end of last week on, had your first fever ever because of your latest shot, and for those few days turned into the calm, snugly baby we sometimes wish you were! We felt bad for you having a fever and not feeling so hot, but otherwise we thoroughly enjoyed the New You. You are back to normal again, though, and haven’t snuggled much since, but at least we don’t have to worry about you anymore.
We survived the last few days with Oma and it seemed that toward the end, she had calmed down enough to make things a bit more enjoyable for Papa and me. Or maybe she'd just run out of energy. At least she didn’t constantly try to tell us what to do with you, how to do it, when to take you outside, when to wake you up from your nap, when not to wake you up from your nap, what to feed you, when to put you to sleep, etc. etc. You ended up having a lot of fun one night with her and laughed your head off like you’ve probably never done before, or maybe only when you first learned to really laugh and oftentimes could not get over some small funny thing. Anyway, it was nice to see and it made Oma happy. You haven’t complained yet that she’s no longer around, but maybe that’s just because you can’t, I don’t know.
Papa and I had Saturday morning to clean the house and get ready for Christiane and everyone – too bad you weren’t yourself entirely, else you’d have enjoyed being with her little kidlets much more. Especially Mia, who’s 5 months older than you, shorter, lighter and wears smaller diapers :) As it was, you got pushed over by her a bunch of times, had fun petting each other on the head one afternoon and she kissed you a few times. The boys kissed you, too, constantly actually, but you just tried to keep to yourself most of the time. Not at all like you.
But now you’re back to normal and we’ve got the house to ourselves again, yay. All the plants we planted with Oma are also still alive, yay for that, too.
