Happy one month birthday to Bree!! Woo hoo! We'd give her some cake in celebration, but the nurses probably won't let us. Ha ha, so some love and caring words will have to do when we see her later this afternoon. There is still no new news on her...no news is good news! She is still on the conventional ventilator, still on 21% oxygen, and being a good little girl.
Riley had more of an eventful day than her sister did. We had a great time at our playdate with Ethan and Aleasha! As usual, Aleasha and I were able to get some much needed mommy bonding time in while Ethan and Riley ran around and played. Both of them seemed to have grown within the two weeks they hadn't seen one another. This time they were sharing with each other on purpose. Ethan pulled a toy out of the toy box, would hold it up for Riley to see, walk over to her, and give it to her. She would hold it for a few minutes, and then give it back to him. It was so sweet of them. They also both learned they could scream back and forth at the top of their lungs at one another. Riley would screech, and Ethan would answer...and so on and so on. Next time I might be bringing some ear plugs...ha ha!
Another momentous event in our day yesterday was Riley 'puttin the moves' on Ethan. She was sitting on the groud, and Ethan was standing in front of her. She proceeded to give him a hug, which to Aleasha and I, did not look very lady like. She grabbed his pants, pulled him to her and while burying her face in his 'front diaper area' said "mmmm!" (she does that during hugs). Aleasha and I just cracked up laughing! Not too long after, somehow the little ones had switched places (Ethan sitting, Riley standing) and Riley bent down, opened mouthed and gave Ethan, as best she could, a kiss on the mouth. But wait! The fun didn't stop there! During Ethan's diaper change (I know you are all thinking, "oh no!"), that's right, she walked right over and grabbed his "business"! Talk about a bold little girl! I couldn't believe it....as if hugging and kissing were not enough. Needless to say, when we got home, Daddy and Riley had a serious talk about boys and what is appropriate behavior.
Hope this finds everyone happy, healthy and in love with life!
