The three of us recently went for a quick visit down to Sedan to see Grandpa Tom and family. Our typically calm, happy daughter turned in to a crying and screaming mess while we were there, but it was great to see everyone. Gwen was so tired from the visit, that on the way home she didn't notice the horrible storm we drove through.

Gwen's daycare provider needed to take a few days off for family reasons. Lucky for Gwen, Tamie and I were able to flex our schedules and make things work during that time. Gwen spent two days at home with me, and two days with Tamie. The days spent with Tamie were spread out between home and work. That's right, Gwen went to WORK! She had a blast hanging out with Tamie's co-workers!

Outside of going to work with mom, Gwen has been developing a language of her own. Tamie and I have really enjoyed listening to Gwen's stories. We have heard it all it seems. Anything from: Da-Da, Ba-Ba, Bla-Bla-Bla, and even a few Ma-Ma's! Aside from developing her own language, and following a bit of a fever, Gwen managed to push a TOOTH out! And she's working on another tooth now!

Tamie and I spent some time this week in our basement putting together a play area for Gwen. We happened to find some puzzle piece padded flooring at Sams, of all places. After taking a guess at how much we needed for her floor, we ended up ordering a BUNCH more, our guess wasn't even close. But, we measured and got it all together last night. Our spoiled little daughter even has a TV to watch her Baby Can Read videos. She loves 'Itsy Bitsy Spider'!
