The Bee Had an “Owie”

Mabel’s bee had an “owie” today, so the only log­i­cal thing to do is to car­ry it like a baby and then ride on it again. 


Today’s Outfit

Mabel has a won­der­ful sense of style…or some­thing. It’s real­ly fun to watch her pick out her out­fit for the day. Her is today’s pick. 

Her ‘base­ball’ shoes are my favorite


Hospital Visit

As you may or may not know, Mabel had a small pro­ce­dure at the hos­pi­tal that required her to be put under gen­er­al anes­the­sia. For­tu­nate­ly every­thing turned out extreme­ly well, includ­ing this video of her walk­ing around the hos­pi­tal telling every­one she saw on the halls (includ­ing the full-size poster of a man wav­ing) that she was head­ed to the restau­rant (hos­pi­tal cafe­te­ria). Mind you, this is only about an hour after wak­ing up from her anesthesia.


(The bag is full of gloves, syringes, face masks, and pret­ty much any­thing else the nurs­es could find for her). 

PS> Thank you for your thoughts and prayers through­out the day. As you can see, she’d doing great. 


Rembrandt was a good painter

Sit­ting at the table, eat­ing her “last meal” of Pop­si­cles, apple juice gelatin and agua de coco (before her surgery), she announces “Rem­brandt was a good painter!” As I stared blankly at her, think­ing there’s no way she just said that…she repeats her­self, adding“remember? At the muse­um!” Of course I do. Except that it was five months ago. How does she do that??

Gingerbread House & Candy Stashes

We recent­ly went to a small event for Mabel’s “school” where she got to build her very first gin­ger­bread house. The expe­ri­ence was pret­ty unevent­ful until the pho­tos reveal where the can­dy stash was being stored.
