Nose Checker

I've been MIA. First, Google's blogger upload limits, then a belly-up hard drive on our iMac. (We have everything backed up, thankfully.) And with all that time between posts, this is how I break the silence:

My parents built us an awesome bookshelf door while they were here. The tissues got moved down a shelf when the Valentine decorations went up, and now Millie can reach them. Yesterday she looked up my nose, declared first "ewww" and then "shisshue!" She went to fetch me a tissue. As I wiped and dabbed, she'd peek up and declare "ewww" each time. It had me a little self-conscious.

And then this morning, Chris brought her into our bed to snuggle with us. It was dark, but that didn't stop her from pointing to my nose, looking at it and exclaimed "ewww" again.

It was at this point I completely stopped believing her and figured it's just a ploy to be able to pull a tissue out of the box. Little stink.

Yes, yes. I've been missing you while you were missing.

How much longer till she gets to check the baby's nose?

I was wondering the same thing as my mom... nd having a good guess that naps are taking priority over blogging.
