12:53 pm - first thanksgiving
This thanksgiving has been a pretty awesome one. Some new discoveries, etc etc. Lena is standing on her own now, for a few seconds at least. Walking is just around the corner...
We went to Wes's lake house this friday. Lena was a ham, what else is new, but the biggest surprise came friday night. We were going to bed, I put her in pajamas that I had bought this wednesday. (Boy pajamas: the main difference from girl pajamas besides the color scheme? They have fake crotches. Fake crotches. I kid you not.) Anyway, it's bedtime, I turn out the lights and blink, Lena lights up like a light bulb! That's right, I bought her GLOW IN THE DARK pajamas. Each monkey, giraffe, elephant, and lion was outlined with a ghostly green glow. She was my own personal glow in the dark star. I laughed. She wiggled around on the floor for a bit, all the jungle animals wiggling about with her, and then went to sleep. Glow in the dark pajamas, I ask you...
In the morning, I don't think she realized that I was sleeping right next to her, so I wake up to her sort of yelling, and I don't see her on her bed, and she's doing a lap around the house looking for me. I called to her as she turned the corner, and she raced over to me smiling. Funny baby. I proceeded to ignore her for thirty minutes or so and tried to sleep in.
I drove Wes to the airport. When he got out and opened the trunk to get his stuff, I walked around to help him. He looked at Lena over the back seat and said to me, "You just don't get sick of her, do you?"
"Nope," I said. And we hugged, and he left. I realized that the noise all the way from Lake Gaston to the airport was something in my heating vent, so I turned off the heat and the sound was gone. Lena sat in the back and blew raspberries all the way home.
Happy thanksgiving, I can't even begin to list all the things I'm thankful for. Suffice it to say, I am thankful.
