Dance Party @ hBhQ

We had a major dance party here at HBHQ last night. Have you heard Adele’s Rolling in the Deep song?

Well, I love it.

It just makes me want to bust a move and so tonight we cranked it up and did just that. I pranced around with Sydney in my arms and Barry carried Maggie in his Captain’s Chair. Maggie got quite a kick out of Sydney’s floating head and was cracking up during the whole song.

In other news I’ve unearthed some old pictures of Maggie that I’m drooling over, simply because they are super beautiful and also because I had forgotten I even took them. I’ve determined that she is growing up at warp speed and I have to suppress the urge to document every moment with my camera.

BUT

I sure do love that I’ve got a ton of photos of these past 10 months and I have no plans to put my camera down anytime soon; however, I suppose I could practice ‘forgetting’ it a time or two, just for the sake of living truly in the moment. I’ll work on that. Maybe.

Anyhow, our house has been full of dance parties and babies that like to wake up through out the night. It is also full of bedrooms that are blue, kitchens that are green and everything else in between.

Go get your dance on today, you’ll feel better.

P.S. When I was trying to buy a song by the artist Pink, I accidently bought Aerosmith’s song “Pink,” turns out you can dance your toosh off to that song too.

BFFs

From what we can tell Maggie and Sydney’s relationship is progressing nicely. Just this afternoon Sydney swiped a wooden puzzle piece and worked on it in a very super sleuth type of way. On one hand, I was proud of her, but on the other hand I really liked the puzzle before she got her paws on it.

I personally think that Sydney has discovered that Maggie is a new source of food for her to tap into and so Sydney tolerates tons of pinches and squeezes. Maggie has been known to intentionally drop a few pieces of food off her high chair just to make sure Syd is down there.

And Sydney is almost always hovering near the high chair once it gets moved into position. They’ve struck a deal, it seems: Maggie gets to poke Sydney while she relaxes in her crate and Sydney gets to swipe pieces of food and toys as frequently as she likes.

When they’re both tuckered out, Syd will retreat to an out of reach area and take a snooze and Maggie will search out something else to poke and squeeze….or twirl.
