We're all worse. And therefore, boring.

We're all worse. Even Scarlet is getting a runny nose, which makes me think she also still has a form of "the cold from hell." Luckily, I visit the doctor today for a routine physical. It's a fortunate coincidence in an unfortunate situation. Hopefully she can prescribe something for all of us (though probably not for Scarlet being that she's 6 months old).

Last night I made some more baby food to give Scarlet a little more variety. Tomorrow I'll finish with the bananas, apples, and sweet potatoes. Then we'll be stocked up for quite awhile. Tonight she had green beans and carrots and mangos--all mixed together. We tried carrots and beans separately. She didn't much like the green beans on their own--she gagged and stuck her tongue out at us. It was only marginally better with the carrots mixed in. When I finished the mangos I figured I'd stir a little bit in and see if she liked it--if not we weren't out that much. She loved it. I tried a little bit and it really wasn't that bad. The mango took over. But the thought of carrots, green beans, and mangos mixed together...hmmm.

Mangos, Peas & Carrots, and Peaches

Other than that, we just relaxed and had some italian sausage lasagna because that was an easy dinner (oven ready lasagna noodles, of course, since regular ones aren't as easy as those).

Jeremy put Scarlet in our blanket storage ottoman and took some cute pictures last night:


We've got to buy Scarlet a Pack 'n Play this weekend. She's too proficient of a roller to keep sleeping in her bassinet, and we still like having her in our room rather than in the other room in her crib. Also, the baby monitor needs either a new rechargeable battery, or I need to buy a battery charger. I'll probably just buy the battery charger. But until I get that done I don't want her in another room at night.

I found a cute video of Scarlet on Christmas morning playing with her favorite toy: wrapping paper!
