Little Mommy

All good intentions this morning as far as going to church...but we never made it out the door! Next week we will be sure to go (hopefully). Anyway, I went to the food store and did a lot of shopping because we were down to almost the bottom! The store was crazy as always on a Saturday or Sunday but the good news was that Erika stayed home with Daddy and so that made my life easier.Erika was up again last night at 3:30 (I think). I am becoming delirious from her new schedule and feel a sore throat coming on. I believe it is her teeth but that doesn't make it any easier on her parents! I put the orajel on her gums at bedtime but I guess it is wearing off and then those mean teeth are waking her up out of her sleep. She is a real character though because we will be listening to her crying on the monitor and then when one of us goes in to get her...she says right away in this cheery voice "Hiii." And then smiles at whoever is in there. She is a nut!
I have wanted to take Erika out with her doll stroller for awhile and so today we finally did it after I put the groceries away. She was so excited when we first started. I wish I would have videoed the first time I had her push that stroller on the street! It was really fun. She walked a lot...and was such a proud Mommy. Only after walking for about 20 minutes did she loose interest and I had to keep coaxing her to keep pushing and moving!
Peter and I were talking today about how much Erika reminds us of my brother Paul. Sometimes she looks like him and many times she acts like the stories I have been told about him when he was little. This may explain why I suddenly feel I have my hands full with her! She is a cutie but as I have mentioned before...a wild turkey too!
Erika and I took a break and stopped at Aunt Judy's house to hang around...even though Aunt Judy wasn't home. Erika took her baby out on her own! I know...the baby has no clothing on and that's because Erika always rips it off. But not to worry we took a blanket for her while walking. So anyway, it was a nice time outside with Erika and now it is time to catch up on all the things that were scheduled to be done this weekend that haven't been done yet. Here a few more pictures from outside today.
Giving kisses to her baby!
and a little video too!
