New Home III: Living Room Menace


The university was having a "clearance sale" about 2 weeks ago, getting rid of old furniture. We went over with the theatre in mind, but I found a couch that was in fairly good shape for $1. The support had been broken and it needed some more padding for the back, (which cost about $20). And because I was thinking of using it for the show, they let me have it for free. Its fixed, I decided not to use it for the show, its now in our living room. Now, we haven't hung up many pictures, and in fact we're pretty much just using pre-existing nails on the walls, but here you are...our living room.

Eowyn has been a joy. She can be frustrating at times, what with exploding diapers at 3 am and all. But she's talking to us and smiling a lot. She was even mimicking me bobbing my head "yes" and "no" last night and again this morning. THAT was awesome. I was changing her yesterday morning and stood her up. She surprised me by standing on her own strength for a few seconds. I had my hands for support. Maren got the camera & she did it a second time, though she was giving me her weight as the picture was taken. Anyway, here's some photos of the living room and Eowyn.







These two are going to get in so much trouble together in about a year or two...

She is such a beautiful girl. I can't wait to hold her. And I will fight mom and dad both over her. haha. Natalie promises to try so hard to be gentle (sometimes she pokes baby's eyes or pats them on the head). But she won't do that to Eowyn. They need to keep the alliance strong

PS, she and Baylor BOTH look like they just did something naughty in that one picture. You'll have your hands full in just a few more months, I bet.

I want to know if she was wearing her socks last night, around 11:30 eastern time.
