Invention






















At 6:21 AM exactly, I was awakened by a sound...






It went like:






"SLORPSLUPSLOOOORSLUUUUCKSLOORRRPPSLIPSLIPSLIPSLOOOPSLORRP."






Eden has found her hands.






Great.






Not that sucking her hands is a bad thing. I mean, I sucked my fingers until I was six-ish. Then my fingers got too long, and they started tasting funny, so that was the end of that. Along with sticking corners of blankets up my nose. But that's another story for another day....






Eden mostly just uses her hands to gag herself.






But she seems happy, so maybe I shouldn't be so down about it.






And I suppose it's another thing to keep her tiny self occupied, so I can run around and get a million things done sans the not-so-tiny-or-light floppy sack of flour that is Eden.






P.S. If you squeeze her, she will bark out a laugh! I did it like 10 times this morning, until she started looking a little overwhelmed. Performance anxiety, I suppose.

Haha! I love the drawings, as usual. You make some dang cute babies, Dara. You should have a dozen more. Hehe.

She is adorable!!! I love the toothless grins of babies, probably because my babies all get teeth at 4-4 1/2 months old.
