Monkey Love

My monkey girl had a great day today. She bumped her head twice last week when I was sickly and busy trying to work through my sickliness. So, I was worried she'd have more troubles today because I had tons of work to get through.

However, she only pulled the lamp down on herself once. After that, I gave up on daytime working and instead we both took a nap. Both feeling refreshed, I finally convinced her to kiss on command. I say KISSES! and she opens her mouth wide and drops her big lovey head right on my lips. It's the cutest thing EVER. And, no, I do not exaggerate.

Also, the baby monkey had another 1st today. FIRST TASTE OF PEANUT BUTTER. I don't know if the baby books have a space for this one, but damn if Bella Wayne didn't love her some peanut butter. I made vegetable beef soup and pb&j sandwiches for dinner. Bella ate most of her vegetables but then gave up. I knew she was hungry so I was a bad mom and let her taste a sandwich.

After that - it was on. She gobbled up the bites faster than I could get them onto her tray. All I can say is, this kid is going to be a huge fan of my favorite sandwich: Peanut butter & banana.

Mama loves her sweet, sweet monkey girl.
