Mrs. Flinger: Code * Travel * Write * Discover

Jul, 28, 2005

We’re all going through a lent of some kind of Lent

Here I was thinking I had nothing really to post about. Sitting here, watching my totally effed up site, moving Oma’s Place to her new location (update your links, BTW) and getting ready to move theflingers (no need to update links.. it’ll be the same) and as I was IMing Traci she pointed something out….

LB hasn’t been swaddled in three days y’all. THREE DAYS. That’s the longest we’ve gone without having to wrap our baby burrito in her life. She cries a bit, plays a little, and then lays down like a big girl and sleep. Without a binki. Without a swaddle. By. Her. Self.

This is perfect timing as I was just starting to write a letter to LB’s future husband about how to swaddle LB on their honeymoon.

But really, we’ve all given up something this week. Swaddle, Caffeine, Pop. And it’s not even Lent.

Posted by Paige (CoraBelle) on 2005-07-28 11:54:37 Sorry your site is still F'ed up. I totally drank 3 beers for you in the mid afternoon. I was hoping the beer God's would help you. But instead they helped me. I laughed so hard about Gav swaddling LB on their Honeymoon LOL. Oh god that was good. I can't beileve you have ben swaddling her this long. Gavin stopped being swaddled when he was like a month old. Does she still let you rock her to sleep? Gavin is already a punk and won't let me rock him. Well I hope for futrue success of the non swaddling of LB!
