"Red" Applesauce

Ivie LOVES "red" applesauce. And since we're hammering the BRAT diet into her right now to fight off the diarrhea that's overtaken her little body during the last 24 hours, it was on the menu for lunch today.

But you know what that means. If Ivie has it, then Macie has to have it. And don't even THINK about trying to feed it to her. Ivie has her own spoon? Then Macie must, too.

Unfortunately, Macie is not as adept with utensils as her almost-4-year-old big sister. But she sure tried. All the way to the bathtub...

Wordless Wednesday (#4): Pizza

Spoon-Fed

Got a little video last night of Macie learning to use her spoon. She so desperately wants to be like her big sister, but she doesn't quite have the coordination to actually scoop the food directly from the bowl. So she does the next best thing...

Milk Bubbles

foI'm home with a sick Ivie today. She had a bad night last night (wheezing and coughing), so, around 11:30p following a middle-of-the night breathing treatment, we relented and Dale slept in her bed with her. By jumping on the nebulizer treatments quickly, we're hopeful to nurse her back to health prior to our upcoming trip to Missouri...

Anyway, moving on to the subject at hand, Ivie practiced making milk bubbles over lunch. Another perfect opportunity to check out my new camera lens!

So. Within 14 hours of the appearance of illness, we've given in to sleeping in her bed with her and allowing poor table manners. I hope the sickness takes these habits along with it when it leaves. Sooner rather than later, please...
