Amazing Independence

It amazes me how grown up and independent my Bug has become in just the last few weeks. She has taken to dressing herself almost completely without help. She gets snacks out of the cabinet, puts the straw in her juice, and uses the potty without always having to tell us. She just seems so grown up. But then I guess that is to be expected when we bring home a new little one who is totally dependent.

Jessica is also pushing the limits of my patience, trying to see what has changed. Currently I am hooked up to a wound vac contraption due to my stiches splitting open. I can carry with me and move around, but not real fast. And i am not to be doing any heavy lifting or strnous work. That seems to make her want to push even further; knowing I can run after her and scoop her up and put her sassy little but in time out.

I love them both, but I have to say, there are not going to be any regrets about getting my tubes tied.
