Chillin'

Yesterday was another full day of visits and stuff. Ariel got to meet her Grandpa Worth for the first time, since he has been out of town since she was born. I think he liked her, just a guess. Also, Stella and Donna were over in the morning for tea and a visit. Nice to sit around and catch up with people. Kara came over later with dinner for us. Yum. Kara got to experience the worst 'crap attack' in the past few days. Actually it was pretty funny. She was holding Ariel when that sound happened, the gun shot! Took her upstairs and got the diaper off and her cleaned, only to have her shoot a second helping on to the changing mat. Got that cleaned up only to have her then pee. We got a good laugh out of it, especially since Ariel looked rather blank on the whole episode.

Stella also presented us with a quilt for Ariel yesterday. Its gorgous, little puppies that remind me of lucas and duckies. Ken's work also sent a lovely arrangement of flowers, and some of the students had chipped in and got Ariel a purple elephant from the Disney store, along with 2 adorable diaper shirts.

Other news, my milk is really in now. I had one of those moments most new moms have when they realize they left the taps on, and yet have no control over turning it off. Needless to say, we had to make a run to the store today to buy a nursing bra and pads. Too much information I know, but thats life with a baby, right?I was so sore yesterday but am much better today. As long as she keeps up with her feeding, I am pretty comfortable. However, I am growing ever more concerned about fitting that dress, might need to add a bit on the sides so I don't look like a medieval serving wench.

Here is our little gal in her carseat. It was our first family shopping trip. After the maternity shop, we stopped at a cute scrapbooking place and then had a bite at Bread Garden. Ken then left later for his last stop motion class. Not sure when he is coming home, but we have dinner coming via the meals on wheels (otherwise known as our Bible study group). Its nice not having to worry about cooking right now.

Tomorrow is Ariel's dedication and party. Expect a round up of the events later that day. Until then, I am gonna grab a nap while she is still sleeping.
