Hello April

April has not started off with flurries. That’s right, not showers, but with flurries, and the slow growth of May flowers. For an allergy sufferer who’s a nursing mom this spring, I’m just praying that it’s a quick, sneezeless and sinus-pain free springtime.

Let’s see, what has happened so far this month? Jono’s basketball team won their division championships. Go Revolution! Debbie’s birthday was on Apr 2. Happy Birthday! I hope that this next year goes even better than the last. I look forward to more chit chats, more laughs, plenty jokes and great life lessons. And now we’re up to the Easter weekend. Yeah, first real holiday since Christmas time for Jono. I can’t wait until the province has a February holiday.

Baby’s doing well. Maybe I’ll post some pics later. She’s crawling like it’s no one’s business. She’s working on pulling herself up to standing. Hasn’t quite bothered with wanting to walk just yet. She’s quite fresh, though. Once she’s standing, she wants to let go and stand alone, though she’s clearly not ready for that yet. Ahh, the laughs. She’s also got two clearly visible bottom teeth. Those are some sharp little buggers.

Our nursing relationship continues well. Turns out that she’s allergic to her rice cereal, so no solids yet. (Do paper napkins count as solids??) She doesn’t bite me while she eats; only when she’s full and decides that my nipple makes a fun chew toy. But as long as you can’t hear me screaming, it’s all good. I’m onto my little Trickster. She acts as though her tremendously cute smile should dull all pain….and it almost does. I can’t wait until she’s a nursing mom and the razor sharp teeth dig into her. I’ll be there to smile and gloat. LOL.

Well, Dacia, that was my update.
