Wow! Today is Anna Claire's 1st birthday! I think both Andy and I have been extra-reflective today. I mean, what a milestone! One year ago today, our lives changed in the best possible way! That being said, it's been a "day".....whew!
First off, the birthday girl was grouchy. We went to Ritchie B's for lunch, and then decided that today was the day to pierce her ears. I had called in advance to make sure that two people would be working, so they could do both ears at once. THAT, at least, was a good call on my part. So we take her to get her ears pierced, and Andy sticks ME with holding her down for them to mark the hole (and the piercing too, for that matter) and she DID NOT APPRECIATE being held down. That was much, much worse than the actual piercing. The piercing was over and done with quickly and with no problems. It was the holding her down that was horrendous. I can promise you that if we have another little girl we WILL be piercing her ears early and not waiting until she's a year old!! But they are adorable - little diamond studs - and she looks beautiful with them. :)
Tonight, she was STILL ill, so we didn't go to church - that would have been a disaster. Andy got home just as she was getting a bath and she was playing so good in the tub! So, as he walks into the room, I turn my head to say hello, but when we looked back, she was holding something brown and looking it over.......ewwwwww!!!!! Yep, she pooped in the tub, and then wanted to play with it. What a day!!! Things are never boring with a baby around!!
