It's me, Catie. I started this blog to capture my thoughts and experiences as our family grew. And now I'm continuing to periodically pause to reflect and record our sweet moments and tough trials.

Tangled
Just finished combing thru Guinevere's hair. It took over an hour. Her tangles had tangles... So much so it resembled a bird's nest. For real! I was pleased we got through it and I didn't have to cut out the mess. However I did decide after returning to silky soft hair to give her a trim. I cut about 1.25 inches. This was her 3rd cut. Again, I'm so glad we got here - phew.
Another go round with poop play?!
This morning Adelaide woke me with her usual calls/shouts. I was hoping to let Guinny sleep in since she stayed up late, so I was going swoop A' up and leave the room. But as I opened the girl's bedroom door a strong smell overcame me. I found Adelaide standing in her crib with her footsie pjs unzipped (down to her ankle), her diaper off, fudgy poo on her butt, hands, and a little on her face. Her diaper was open sitting next to her and the majority of the brown goodness sitting in a neat pile in the middle of her pillow. There was also smears on her blanket, pjs, and Cookie Monster friend. If she wanted to 'paint' she could have done a whole lot of damage with this load. I think she just wanted it off and wasn't going to wait on me. Needless to say my morning started with bathing Adelaide and laundry. Hahaha... Already laughing about it :)

My super power is diminishing
In previous years during pregnancies Rick gave me many compliments about how I acted, grew, looked, and my general health. I claimed pregnancy as my super power! Don't get me wrong, I still experienced some pretty typical morning sickness, blood sugar drops, swelling, weepiness/moods, fatigue, shortness of breath... But all in all was in a great mood. While expecting the girls I worked thru; actually with G, I worked even the morning of. With Adelaide I planned to do the same, but ended up taking a day or two off beforehand. This go round I'm at home and it seems much different.
