Cupcake!

Rosalie was a strawberry cupcake for her first Halloween, and couldn't have looked any cuter or sweeter. I'll cut right to the chase-- here are a few pics to tide you over.

We have a summer home! We signed the papers over the weekend. Click here to see some new (and old) pics of the place.

Come on loogie!

Rosalie's First Disease

I've been home with Rosalie the past two mornings because of a new rash she contracted. Her pediatrician diagnosed her with Hand, Foot, and Mouth Disease yesterday. Rosalie is doing fine, but between the sores in her mouth and her second tooth poking through on top, she has been fussier than usual. She wants to be held and isn't eating as much either. Here are some photos of the blisters on her feet. She doesn't sit still, so it was hard for me to focus the camera right on her sores. If you're ever so inclined, you can click on the photo and see larger, more detailed images.







And just so you don't leave this blog thinking about blisters, here she is in her new monkey pajamas:



And with big smiles from a few days ago:

Asleep at school

Bah bah bah bah

I'm not sure Rosalie can tell the difference between a Cabbage Patch Kid and a real person.

Torn-up Thumb

Mary noticed Rosalie's thumb was looking red. Upon further investigation, it turns out Rosalie's tooth is scratching it up! That's a side-effect no one tells you about.
