Spring is in the air (finally!)

Just a quick break from the article so we can celebrate the sunshine! It's in short supply around here lately. For instance? Today it got up to the high 70's, was sunny, gorgeous, beautiful... and tonight, it is storming. Thunder. Lightning. Hard rain. Hopefully, the river will not flood again.

Sunshine! And Kiki's first swing!



Being the newbie mom I am, I forgot to put sunscreen in the diaper bag (it is in there now and will stay there until the end of time.) Being Missouri and March, her worst enemy anyway was the wind. So she got a little windburn, but it didn't seem to bother her, and it cleared up within an hour or so.

I started feeding her bites off my plate sometime last week, and now no one can eat in front of her without having to share. She sits with the dogs on the floor, and gives us pathetic, begging looks that completely outshine the efforts of the dogs.

The dogs are not amused.
