Catching Up

Someone told me that after sinus surgery it would be about six weeks before I would really better.  I don't remember who that was, but they were right.  Sinus surgery went ok, even though the dr. was not able to drain the frontal sinus.   Melissa and Joseph were with me at the hospital, not sure what I would do without them.  Melissa spent the first night home with me.  After several more weeks of antibiotics, weekly trips to dr., and no improvement, I was given steriods which did the trick! 
 
Bailee has grown up so much over the past few months.  One day she said, Gigi, I'm getting big ..... and that makes you sad.  I told her yes but she would always be my little princess and reminded her that her daddy is still my baby boy.  She also told me that when she gets big like me that she will hold me!  She is such a sweet little princess, most of the time.
 
Bailee and Miles were surprised recently with a swing set at Gigi's and Pepaw's.  While Miles seemed to enjoy the swing, Bailee loved sliding over and over.  She said that she was going to slide forever and ever and ever!
 
Bailee noticed that Pepaw has a tooth missing and wanted to know what happened to it.  When he told her, she says, hmmm you look like Miles!
 
Last year about this time Bailee would play Chuck E Cheese in my kitchen.  Each cabinet was a game, the back door was where Chuck E was standing.  We had imaginary tokens, tickets, everything one would need at Chuck E Cheese!  Just the other day she began playing this game again.  What a memory she has.
 
What a surprise I had when Bailee recited the Pledge of Allegiance and sang God Bless America.  She is such a smart little girl.
 
When I took Bailee and Miles home one day, before we got out of the car, she said Gigi, I sure miss you :(  can I come to your house again?  It breaks my heart that I can't keep them any more. 
 
Another time after what seemed like a million questions, I hear from the backseat:
 
Bailee:  Gigi
Gigi:  What Bailee?
Bailee: I sure love you!
 
Miles continues to grow and has become a much happier baby.  Perhaps it is due to Sadie, his little girlfriend at daycare.  Miles is truly his father's son!
 
I know I am forgetting some of the funny, interesting things that Bailee says, but this is all for now.
