Blowing Bubbles!

We woke up this morning with snow covering the ground. We were just getting into the whole spring thing and now winter is back. Aimée and I had absolutely no desire to pull out the boots, hats and mittens. We just brought our spring activities indoors instead. We blew bubbles in my kitchen.

I loooooooooooove these pictures and had a hard time choosing which ones to post; so I ended uploading a bunch of them. They crack me up!






"Aimée, please don't eat the bubble!"




And a smack, smack here,
And a smack, smack there,



Here a smack,
There a smack,
Everywhere a smack smack!
(This is going to make one sticky floor)


On another note, Aimée now weighs a little over 19 pounds. Hurray!!!
(Such a serious look!)
As many of you know, Aimée is not the best of eaters. We have been attending the Feeding Clinic at CHEO and trying to improve Aimée's appetite. We are definitely making progress.

It turns out Aimée does in fact like to eat.... just not the food I prepare for her. She may shake her head at mashed potatoes, beef and carrots, but she will not hesitate to chew on hairbrush bristles, tiny felt pads from the chairs' feet, or her recent favorite, DOG FOOD! Clearly, the problem is her mommy simply has not been presenting her with the right kind of foods.

Really, is dog food so bad? I mean, we get the best stuff for our dogs.

Max and Vanh are complete cookie addicts. We have to trick them by hiding the real food on bits of Mum-Mum. Another trick is to offer the cookie, then when they open their mouths, slide in the spoon. But their favourite thing to eat (now that we have hidden all the electrical cords) is string. Sigh.

Looks like another day stuck inside. Want to come visit?

I just cannot get enough of her smiles. I love that smile. It was great seeing everyone today. Didn't have a chance to cuddle with Aimee because she was having a nap most of the time I was there. Maybe next time.

Thanks for the invite.

Allo,

Bravo Aimée pour ton 19 livres...
Michelle ne soit pas trop inquiète, tu sais elles sont très petites nos cocottes du Vietnam.
Les miennes ont 2 ans et Lori-Anh pèse un beau 19.5 livres et Émi-Ly un beau 21.5 livres.
Et sans manger de biscuit de chien, elles ne mangent pas beaucoup sauf si c'est sucré !!!

J'aime beaucoup venir voir les photos d'Aimée.

Bye,
Lucie maman d'Émi-Ly et Lori-Anh
