Random Moments

Nara and I have had some fun moments over the past couple of weeks. Here are some pictures and video of some of our adventures.

I was doing things in the back of the house and when I came up I found  her asleep so soundly on the pillow in the family room.

Our latest sewing project was a new tent for Nara's room. We switched rooms recently so that the baby could have the closer bedroom. I wanted to make her new room super cool so we made this. She absolutely loves it. Her favorite thing is that we get to read scriptures in it. There are lots of pillows inside and even some twinkly lights. It is pretty comfortable and even Mom. Dad  and Uncle John have fallen asleep in there from time to time.

Nara has taken to the idea of coming in our room at night and crawling into bed with us. We told her that she wasn't allowed in our bed until the sun came up. She has done pretty well with it, but still comes in. Mostly to get a drink of water. After the surgery she has needed it. Now, rather than crawling into our bed, she's started curling up on the pillows on the side of the bed. Sometimes I didn't even know that she is there.  She has done it enough that now i have a blanket on the end of our bed that I put over her.

Nara loves corn on the cob. We recently got some in our neighborhood fruit/veggie co-op. She ate an entire ear this night for dinner. It was so cute. I had to get video of her saying, "Yum, Yum" every time she took a bite. Of course, as soon as I pulled out the camera, she stopped. I waited for a little bit, that's why it's a little long, but it is still cute of her. 

In an attempt to help Nara get over her thumb sucking habit, I have started putting puppets on her thumb that look like different things. Yesterday, it was Thumbalina; Today a tiger. It does work some. Yesterday she left it on for six hours. Today she managed to bite it off. Both days she has come to me and said, "Mommy, take it off please." Yesterday on the way home from Grandma's she asked me to take it off then added, "Suck thumb, please? Can I suck please?"

Reading on Mommy and Daddy's bed. This girl loves her books.
