Bath Time....

Look at this sweet baby in the bath yesterday. So happy, so sweet, so blue-eyed. 
After taking this picture of Saige, I took a sweet picture of Lyd. 
After I took a picture of Lyd, I looked back at sweet little Saige, and realized she was pushing. I tried to get her fast enough, but I didn't make it time. For the second time, in her short life, Saige has pooped in the tub. This NEVER happened with my older girls. But Saige eats more and so she goes more.

The first time Saige pooped in the tub, Dave was here. We worked together to clean it up, and when I needed to, I left the room. This time, though, it was just me and Lydia here. So I was on clean-up duty by myself. I was determined to get it done (weak stomach and all), and I did, but it wasn't before I lost a little bit of my breakfast on the bathroom floor and also had to clean that up. I sanitized the bathroom while Lydia sang songs to herself and Saige crawled around my bathroom, completely naked. I then picked Saige up, re-started her bath and proceeded to get on with our day. Because that's what moms do.

Camping 2013

Three weeks ago, Dave, the girls and I were camping with my parents in Glen Rose Texas. My mom plays an instrument called the mountain dulcimer. Every year, there is a bluegrass "hoedown" at this camp site, and my parents invited us to go and enjoy some fun music with them. We had a ton of fun! We grilled out, climbed the rocks at Big Rocks Park, waded in the clear water in the park, celebrated Mother's Day with handmade cards and s'mores, explored the little historic town of Glen Rose, and sang around a campfire. I even got to take a beginner class for playing the mount dulcimer with my mom. Cool, huh? I thought so. Pics are below. :)

Thanks for checking in. I hope you had a blessed May! -Amber
