Ah Berit

This was written May 1st  -- a week ago already! -- and it follows the first accident post...

This last week was pretty eventful.  Pete started his first tour as Captain and on that same day, I got a dreaded call from day care telling me that there had been an "incident" -- Berit had been bleeding a lot and was very upset but had calmed down.  It was an accident certainly, but the sort of moment when you feel like nothing else can ever be as important as raising your baby and protecting her from the dangers of the world.  Working mothers have guilt all the time; this is the exact kind of moment when that guilt feels justified.  It was awful.

We are again falling way behind on photos and updates.  Seven months has come and gone!

Bear laughs when I wear hats..then she pulls them off

What a sweetie

Our little liberal in training -- off to help Papa plan council campaigns!

It is May but we are still wearing our winter earflaps!

She LOVES this monkey.  Sometimes we have to take a break while getting dressed to be sure he is still there
Fortunately she has recovered from her latest injury very quickly and with great spirits.

A few scrapes remaining on the upper lip -- we don't think there will be a scar

Uncle Woody is off to Alaska and Aunt Krista is arriving from San Francisco in two days!

Seeing Woody off to the airport shuttle

Berit plans to be driving by the time he returns...


Here she is getting tips from papa


She figures if she eats the camera, I will stop taking photos of her
