Libby's La Vida Loca

Libby's had a bad few days where something clearly just ain't right. She just started Zantac this afternoon, so let's keep our fingers crossed that this will cure what ails her. If not, well, if you hear on the news that someone has been spotted swimming in Lake Michigan, it's me--trying to escape the crying, crying, crying.

In another attempt to help her, we're supposed to keep Libby upright for 30 minutes after she eats. I usually just hold her, but it's led us to try some new things to break the monotony for me. First, the Exersaucer from Grandma and Grandpa for Christmas.

[Looks at photo.] Hmmm. Well, maybe not just yet. Did have Mommy peeing herself with laughter, though, at the sight of her little applehead trying bravely to stay upright.

We propped her up with a blanket, which helped a bit. Still not quite ready for this fun, though.



Next, the Bumbo seat. A winner! Thanks to Kelly and her girls for the loan on this one. And thanks to Joane and Brian for the teddy, which Libby clearly loves. Jeez, Teddy and Libby. Get a room already!



And the last bit of news: Libby visited my old school with me last week. She was so good! The kids and teachers loved her (of course -- because she's awesome!). Here she is with my advisory (what we used to call homeroom in the good ole days). I shared a boys advisory last year. They're sophomores this year. I can't get over how mature they've gotten! Thanks to Khushali and the boys for such a warm reception.
