Funny noises with Daddy. Brian decided to spend some time at home after he got back from Junction City/before going deer hunting. We were GLAD. Did I mention we'd missed him? He does this hoot owl call/noise and Carmen thinks it's funny, but only for the first few times. Video is after several times so she doesn't smile as big as she normally does when he makes the noise.
Carmen has had a cold, again. Laura & I were talking about it a while back - Dr. told her that babies have about 10 colds in the first year of life. I'm thankful that she's still her happy self! She's sleeping more (longer naps), still smiling, cooing & kickin', but eating less. 4.5 oz is about the max she'll take right now (6 oz is normal). She just has junk in her throat, not really in the nose - no fever. I propped up her bed & put the vaporizer in there, and we even sat in the steamy bathroom the other night.
Thursday night when I picked up Carmen from daycare another Mom was there holding Carmen. I walked in & sat down beside them. She started squirming and even fussed a little. The other Mom said "I think she wants Mommy". And that was it. As soon as I held her she calmed down. :)
Yesterday's daycare report said that Alisa was reading her a book and Carmen coo'd & talked through the book, like she was reading it too!
Well, I better vacuum while I've got the chance! Today we're going to have dinner w/ a friend who is pregnant. Hoping I can pass on some good tips that we've experienced...
I've posted Alaina's (our niece) comments on a previous blog. She has written some pretty cute ones this week...we LOVE getting those comments!
"Dear Carmen,I hope you love me. Guess what? I am going to have a feast at preschool. I love you. Happy, Happy Thanksgiving. I'll see you next Saturday at what clock?This will be your first trip going to see lots of cats and cows and a dog named Rascal. And you know what? We love you-me, Mommy, Daddy and Anna Kate. I can't wait until you are big and you will be able to go check those cows.From Alaina Lynn Link"

Dear Carmen,
I just read your exchange with Alaina. We will definitely need to record your first visit to the barn and to see the cows. I'm sure I can count on Papa having his camera ready.
We are anxious to see you, and we hope you have some big smiles for us. We're also anxious to hear you talk. We're looking forward to a great weekend.
We hope your cold is better soon.
Love, MaMa Link
P.S. I'm sure your daddy was very happy to see you, and Mommy. And, I'll bet you had lots to tell him.
Love, MaMa Link
Dear Carmen,
You are so special because you are part of this family. And I'll always love you. We have some Carhartt's for you for when you get bigger. I don't know what size they are?! This comment is from Alaina Lynn Link. But, my mom wrote it down. I don't know how to spell. 4 age 7 age-Anna Kate is a 7 girl.
