This week Vera has been battling a viral infection. We’ve been giving her probiotics, etc. and she seems to be on the mend. She unfortunately had to miss some nights of VBS at church because she is contagious. But even while fighting this off, she still hasn’t slowed down! Wednesday, the worst day of her illness, she still was as busy as she usually is!
Here is a video of her playing Ring Around the Rosie with her bunny & bear.
Nothing slows her down!
A few weeks ago, I was taking care of Cordelia in the nursery and I needed Tad for something. I hollered (the AC was on and he was a few rooms away), “Tad! Could you come here please?” Vera, who was sitting in the room with me, quickly piped up: “Tad! Come here please!” Of course Tad and I both cracked up laughing. I’ve tried to be more conscious of not calling him Tad in front of her since it is a little confusing that “Dad” and “Tad” sound so much alike. 🙂
Tad and I call each other “honey” all the time, so it’s no wonder that Vera has picked up on that too.
Vera has started calling me “honey”! As in…
“Honey, where are my shoes?” (Who does she sound like?)
“Honey, where are my keys?” (Um… you don’t have any keys!)
“Honey, when’s dinner?” (A little parrot, I tell you!)
Honey, this… honey, that. It’s quite adorable.
You gotta watch what you say around a toddler!
Before Mimi left last week, we wanted to get some pictures of her and the girls. One of the two girls is quite a wiggle-worm! The first one actually was one of the best!

The other one of my girls is always smiling. 🙂
Another “peeking” photo…
And a tea party!
Any tips for getting good pictures of wiggly almost-two-year-olds?
