It has been an exciting several days at the Bubb house! Amita's second tooth came in... then receded... and has now returned again! I'm hoping that it will stay this time so that she can finally be done with that second pesky tooth. She has also hit another milestone... she got her first ear infection this weekend. Her only symptom was spooky eyes (yellow mucus like pinkeye). Fortunately, we've got her on antibiotics and she'll be fine for our big weekend with the family. Whew!
Baxter and Amita have become best friends. He is fine laying by her and lets her "pet" him. He has also claimed her bouncy chair and jumperoo as his own. It was a game of chicken to see who would give up control of the jumperoo first... Baxter blinked first and Amita emerged victorious. It might have had something to do with her stomping on him several times, but I guess we'll never know for sure.
Aaron managed to put up a ceiling fan in our bedroom - thanks much to the oversight and skill of Paul, who has installed over 10 fans now. He's a real pro! And this worked on the very first try... Impressive!
Our sidewalk is now complete - there is mortar in the joints around the stamped stones. It looks even better than we ever imagined!
These two cranes showed up at our house last week Thursday and have been hanging around every day since. Aaron has named them Niles and Frasier.
Baxter climbed into the tea cabinet while we were whipping up a batch of tea. Who would've guessed that big guy could even fit in there?!?!?!
The auger used to dig the holes for our trees. We have officially met all the subdivision requirements now!
We moved our sugar maple to the west side of our front yard.
We planted an autumn blaze maple in the back yard. It's nice to have a little greenery back there to look at.
The two river birch on both sides of our driveway. The sugar maple moved to accommodate these big fellas.
Wow!! You guys have been busy!! Looks great, and I love the sidewalk!! I liked it before, but now it's awesome! Congrats to Amita on her 2nd tooth, I'm crossing my fingers that it's here to stay (for a few years anyway). Trees look great. You're house is gonna look very established now, with the new drive, walk and trees. Amita is adorable as always. I laughed out loud at the Baxter vs Amita jumperoo stand-off. Piper thought I was laughing at her and got big smiles. Looking forward to this weekend and getting my hands on Amita!! See ya soon. Hope her ear infection isn't bothering her any more.
