If there was ever a time you didnt think our darling little Annaka was as weird and crazy as Naomi or I... well, you were mistaken. As you can see I have proof. Annaka strolled over to where I was sitting with her googley batty eyes. Needless to say I had my self a good laugh before running to grab the camera. I was surprised at her blind dexterity in her journey past the gauntlet of baby toys strewn about... without even peeking.

There are some days that Annaka can look as beautiful as ever. This is one of my favorites. It was a choice snap in between being too sisterly and causally painting the house with clutter.

You cant quite see it here but Adelyn is not lacking many teeth. There has been more than one occasion where upon the return of a crawlabout she would be rolling something around in her cheeks. I just wish Naomi would let me know when she gives Adelyn little things like bites of apple. It may save me many many sore fingers.

Naomi and Annaka making some wonderful home made pizza. They do such wonderful work.

Well, sadly that is all the pics that I have to blog so far tonight. I have been taking video. The problem with my video is the lack of support for my new OS (Windows 7). I vow to find a way and share the love of Annaka tickling Adelyn, Adelyn crawling around, and more. Soon... I hope.

Snuggles

I woke up groggily. No desire to awake and acknowledge Thursday had arrived. I heard no alarm noise or even Naomi asking me to help with the girls. Today I awoke to one little girl crawling in under the covers and burrowing into the warmth and contentment of my arms. How could anyone refuse such an adorable unspoken request. This is not all that unusual. However, today... today Annaka was very keen on snuggling (my favorite). There are not many things that are better than a blissful cuddling while you drift along the edge sleep. No kicking, wiggling or "Daddy will you hold my baby please", just warmth and contentment.

As I said before, there are not many things better than one little snuggly girl. However, today I was blessed enough to experience one. With Annaka all tucked in on one side I became aware of another little bundle fighting her own fight against the morning wake up. Adelyn had come to rest with her head perpendicular to mine and curled around the side of my shoulder. I figured at this point that my rest time was short. I could hear Adelyn going through her start up procedure. Little cooing sounds marked this little pilot going through her preflight checklist. She was awake. Yet..., she did not get up and call for clearance from the tower. Instead, for a few blissful minutes, she just cooed softly and snuggled against me. I pulled her in under my arm. There, two little girls snuggled in. I think today will be a wonderful day no matter how cold and gray outside. It is warm here.. inside.

I hope someone snuggled you today... if not, there is always tomorrow.
