She said it.

She said, "I love you." Tim heard her say it when he was feeding her dinner. I didn't hear it until I was rocking her to sleep and asked her to say it. She did. And, she only said it once. It is the cutest thing to ever come out of her mouth. Well, "Please!" is pretty cute too because it's so high-pitched. Naw. Nothing beats hearing your own child say, "I love you."

We went on our first picnic today too! Tim finally gave in. I've been asking him to do all sorts of outdoorsy things lately. He says it's too hot. Well, today wasn't so bad.

She loved the peaches. She was double-fisting it with the forks! She cried when we took her out of the swing.

The best part of the day was watching her run around in the wide-open. She was loving it. I could barely photograph her! She wouldn't be still for one second!


And here is my favorite shot of the day:


I just love seeing her happy like that. She's been teething again, so we hear a lot of the uncomfortable whining. Teething must really suck. I hate it for her. She's got two coming in at the same time.

I have been going non-stop since work started. I forget to even look at my cell phone. I forget which emails I've responded to and which ones I haven't. Please forgive me if you are reading this and you're thinking, "Yeah. Yeah. You're such a loser." You're right. But still, please forgive me.
