I wanna help you Daddy!!

As you know last week, Lauren was out of daycare all week with a viral infection. Well she is doing great, but you know when Mommy stays home with baby who is the next to come down sick? Mommy!!!!

Well sure enough, on our way home from the Burg visiting my sister, I started feeling aweful. I figured that I was getting the flu the way my body was feeling. All I wanted to do is either sit in a hot bathtub or sleep, that was the only way I could feel relief. Ray was away hunting last weekend and I wouldn't let him come home, because he had also stayed with Lauren last week as well and he really deserved a weekend away. When he came home Sunday, I couldn't have been happier to see his scruffy face walking through the door. Those women who are hunting widows on the weekend all know this face. Anywhoo, I have had a wonderful husband all week who has allowed me to actually get some rest and heal.

I cannot remember what night it was this week, but one that I still didn't feel very well. Ray decided he was going to fix dinner. Well he wanted to keep Lauren occupied so he was trying to entertain her while he cooked. Both of us were in the kitchen when we hear in this sweet little voice, "Daddy I wanna help you!!" Ray just couldn't deny this sweet little face and voice, so Ray picked her up and put her on the counter. I caught these pics while she "helped" her daddy. She thought that we had given her all the money in the world!!! She is especially big on being the "big girl" right now. We encourage every moment of this, although it still makes me sad on how fast she is growing up!!! I hope that you all enjoy the pics, I know I did!!!
