Vivi: Forty Weeks

If our life this past week were to be made into a mini-series, it would be called "Les Trois Rousses Malades" or "The Three Sick Redheads."  It would be the most boring footage of us blowing our noses, lying on the couch looking sad, and watching too many hours of Disney Junior to count.  Very artsy.  

So far, Vivi has suffered the least of it with a runny nose and a slight cough.  I have my fingers crossed for her because I was KO-ed for a good 24 hours and now Eric is suffering its wrath.  We'll see.  

The big news in the land of Vivienne's is that she's crawling!  

Any time that she sees a coffee mug, an electric cord, or a lamp she's off!  My days of lounging on the couch eating bon-bons while she sits on the floor playing with cardboard boxes is officially over.  Shucks.  

I must say, she looks really cute when she crawls.  She wiggles her hips back and forth to propel herself forward like a wind-up toy.  

Obviously, she's been getting into Madeline's toys a lot.  I watch her very carefully when she makes her way toward M's Lego bin or bucket of dolls.  Vivi pulls the toys out one at a time, studies them closely, then tosses them in a pile before inspecting the next one.  She's so methodical.  

She's been saying "Mummmm Ma" a lot this week.  I don't think she knows what she's saying, but I'll take it!

She had a few rough nights of sleeping last week, but she seems to be settling back into a good rhythm now.  Her tummy is back to normal for now too.  

And getting a bunny picture this month?  Ummm...a nearly impossible feat.
