Wanna see pictures of my kid?

Grandma and Grandpa are here visiting, well, Grandpa left, but Grandma is still here. It's so nice that she came so that I can take long naps every morning to hang out with us and see Paisley. Paisley really seems to enjoy the company, but it also seems to make her clingier to me. I can't hardly go to the bathroom without P crying and screaming in terror that I'm leaving her. Grandma has taught P to say "right back" when I leave, and she'll chant that over and over until I reappear. I really hope this is a stage. In one sense it's nice to feel so needed, but I would like to pee in relative peace one day.

Baked cheetos. A wonderful snack for most people, but they're Paisley's main staple. At least they're baked. Cheetos and Yogos. I think she'd be hard pressed to choose between the two.

She's not really asleep in this picture. I can't remember the last time she fell asleep on someone or someplace besides her bed.
Mommy (I've progressed from Mama to Mommy) trying to get a kiss. She used to give them to me all the time, but now she pushes my face away. She'll kiss her little boyfriend Cobey (or BOPPY! to her, whom she yells for all day), Dora the doll, but not me. I think the next picture was her pushing me away.

I got her some of those bathtub crayons. She LOVES them. I don't, because that means the tub has to be scrubbed after every use.


We took Grandma and Grandma to the local park (15 miles away), and they all had a grand time.
There are 4 baby swings, and Paisley insisted on getting in every single one.



Yesterday, Grandma and I took P to the zoo. She liked the animals, but seemed wary of the really ugly pig that she could get really close to. This is the same enclosure where I got attacked by goats. Ok, not exactly, but I had one jump up on me and get my shorts dirty. Close enough.

The reading chair. I love that she'll grab a book and then sit here.







Chocolate and tv daze. What could be better?
