Hush-a-bye Mountain

Well, it's been a few days since I have posted. Not really a whole lot to report.

Smasher closed out the week wonderfully after a rough start. He and I were both sick with sore throats and headaches on Wednesday. But we're both awesome now!

Shy is doing great. She's been wanting to be held all day long so I strapped on my trusty Moby wrap and carried her around in that most of the time.

Our weekend was nice. Smash was at my grandparent's house again. I swear, we only get visitation, but he loves it so much down there that I don't have the heart to say no. The Hubby, Shy and I made a trip to the city to see his mom and my aunt. It was a good trip. Short, but good.

I don't know what has gotten into Smash this week but he has behaved beyond reproach (almost). He has listened when I said no or told him that something would hurt him and just walked away from things without throwing a fit. I'm more lenient with him lately though and I think that is helping both of us. He did kick Shy yesterday though and so he got in trouble for that, but all-in-all - I give his behavior this week a 10!

Shy is starting to hold up her head now! She's growing so fast!

We've been watching "Chitty Chitty Bang Bang" lately. And the lullaby that Dick Van Dyke sings to his kids has always been one of my favorites so I finally got all the words down. I sang it to Shy the other day and she conked out pretty fast. If you haven't heard it, go find it and listen to it.

A gentle breeze from Hushabye Mountain

Softly blows o'er Lullaby Bay

It fills the sails of boats that are waiting,

waiting to sail all your worries away.

It isn't far to Hushabye Mountain

And your boat wait down by the key.

The winds of night so softly are sighing

Soon they will fly your troubles to sea.

So close your eyes on Hushabye Mountain.

Wave goodbye to cares of the day.

And watch your boat from Hushabye Mountain

Sail far away from Lullaby Bay.

Well, a hungry kid calls so I must attend to them!
