Today I stayed home from work because I have a terrible cold and barely have a voice. I don't enjoy staying home from work and being sick because when I am here I can't rest knowing I have laundry and other household chores to do. Well, this time was different. I really got some enjoyment out of staying home and being sick. Mallory's smile and laugh made it all worthwhile.

She was getting fussy within minutes after I snapped the above picture so I laid her on the bed and went to make her up a bottle. This is what I returned to.

I have slowly been getting her used to taking formula. We have had really good luck with the switch.
Over the weekend, we spent the night at mom and dad's and went out for Shriner's weekend. While we were eating supper Aunt DeAnn was holding Mallory as I captured pictures of her finding her thumb. She rarely takes a pacifier but often sucks on her hand.

The babysitter told me that she has sucked her thumb before but this was my first actual witness to the encounter!! We have our proof!!! We have a thumb sucker!!

Not the best picture but mom and Maddox were giving Mallory her "Grandma" sink bath before bedtime! She loves to take a bath no matter where it is. Hopefully that means she will like the water this summer. Not sure what Maddox is doing but he is always big help when it comes to Mallory! I debated posting this one but the other night Maddox came over and we were looking through albums from when Gavin was born and he couldn't understand why he wasn't in any of the pictures. How do you explain that to a kid??
