Violet has not been enjoying riding in the care these days, here is a peek into what we drive with. This was on the way to the pond...
Katie is great during the screaming, she usually puts her finger in her mouth and (I am guessing) zones Violet out, wish the rest of us could do the same!
Man that girl has some lungs!
Much like most babies, Violet is not so much enjoying bath time. She is starting to tolerate it a bit more, but not favorite activity by any means!
She starts off being pretty passive and then gets more and more upset
and then by the end is just angry!
Then finally clean and dry and is once again our happy girl!
Katie Favorite place to watch Katie's movies.
Really only Elmo and Frozen these days...I Love you Netflix!
It usually keeps her busy so I can feed Violet without her getting onto trouble...usually!
Jake enjoys letting the Violet latch on his nose, not sure what she thinks about it other than he isn't producing milk...Katie I am sure thought the same thing when he did it to her. I love that man!
We took a trip to the Athens Splash Pad and Katie had a great time! She ran all over and went from the water area to the playground and back again, she was so excited she couldn't even eat lunch! She tried but just couldn't do it! Violet slept through the whole day except for when it was time to eat:) Once we were in the car Katie could finally eat, she must have been starving! On a positive note we missed the virus that hit the splash pad by a few days! Thank the Lord for that one!
Katie seems to enjoy Violet more and more every day. Some days I feel like she feels nothing has changed and then others she really seems to notice Violet. The more Violet responds the beter it will be. Violet responds some now, but not enough for a 2 year old.
Violet's favorite position for eating these days.
We finally got a good rainy day to play in the rain! Daddy does NOT like to play in the rain, for those of you who may not know, Jake HATES for the rain to get on his neck, HATES! I think I am just finding out how severe is hatred if for this recently. I knew it annoyed him, but I had no idea just how bad. The things you learn about someone, even after all this time married to the man!
The puddle was the biggest in the back of the truck so she preferred to stay in the truck!
Thanks much in part to Ninny and all the aunties in Chipley we are not in need of dress up clothes, of any kind! Princesses to super heroes we have it all and just about everything in between! I wish I ha a picture every time she came out of her room in something, but she runs from the camera most days.
Batgirl has a very important job, keeping baby sister happy in the car! These days is going much better, Ms. Patty Cake told us to crack the windows just a bit in the back and it has worked like a charm! YAY to happy girls in the car!
Cutness is sleeping in her bed for naps these days, as soon as she stops eating in the middle of the night we will make the transition over to her sleeping in here at night too!
7/21 Coming home from visiting Wes in the afternoon Violet and I were in a wreck. I had no idea the severity of the wreck until much later at the hospital. There is no doubt that it was not our time to go and the Lord was with us that day. I have no doubt God watches over us every day, but there is something different about that day. I blacked out, veered off the road, hit a concrete culvert, flipped, as we flipped we rolled over the tops of 7 cars at a used car dealership, and finally came to a stop on the tires in the ditch in front of the dealership. Violet was screaming and I was out of it not knowing what just happened. Thankful is not a strong enough word to use to describe how I feel that we were able to walk away from the wreck. We learned that Violet had a small brain bleed due to her head hitting the car seat and I had scrapes and bruises and a pretty nasty seat belt rash on my neck, but that is all! Violet needed to be observed overnight just to make sure the bleed was not going to get any worse, and they wanted to transport her to Children's Hospital in ATL for that. The worst part was thinking about my baby girl riding in the helicopter alone after the ordeal she went through. The weather didn't permit flying so they transported by ambulance and Jake rode with her. That was a rough goodbye even knowing that Jake was with her was rough. Jake said she slept the whole way and did great, better than the both of us! I got discharged and ran by the house to get needed items and rushed to the hospital. Jacki and Granny were with me so I was not alone, but it sure seemed the hospital was 500 miles away! They are fantastic at Children's not only for the patients but for the parents as well. Although I hope to never need their services again! EVER!
One of the cars we flipped over the top of, it got the worst damage.
It may seem silly but I was really excited to retrieve Bubba out of the wreckage, I love my water ice cold and Bubba helps me keep it ice cold!
I was also excited to get my note from Jake that has been in my truck for about 10 years and doesn't stick anymore, but it stays in there.
7/29 A few days after the wreck Violet had her first smile, not gas related:)
Selfies with sister and Mom she is not so sure about!
