It was a gorgeous day last week and Pip and I decided to eat our lunch outside. This was one of those forced Hallmark moments that Julie and I have talked about. A moment that I thought would be so adorable and cute and she and I would lie on the blanket and giggle and laugh and sing songs.
Really it turned into me repeatedly asking her to please come back to the blanket and eat lunch with Mommy, and no you can not go inside and watch Elmo because we are having a special moment and I just made all of this food for you and you don't want any of it? The more I try and force the moment, the less organic it is. It did make for some cute pictures, no?
When I got Piper up from her nap today she was jumping and laughing in her crib. She had a huge smile on her face and said "Mommy, you get in bed with me?" I thought, why not? and I heaved myself over the crib railing and played in her crib with her for 10 minutes. She pretended to put me to sleep and then would count 1, 2, 3 and yell "Wake up MOMMY!!!" and I lifted her up on the feet and she did the helicopter thing. It was a super sweet and cute moment, that was entirely unplanned.
Do you want to go inside and watch Elmo with me Mommy?
Please Mommy, Elmo?

I thought Patrick forbade you from using the word Organic other than referring to food.
