I've been falling on the job with updates! Mom & Dad were here for a week, Carmen's been sick, then there's just life! :) Alaina inspired me to get going on an update. She posted a comment that is too cute...

"Dear Carmen,I liked your picture whenever you were naked and had the towel over you. I also liked the picture when you were smiling. I also like holding you. You are a very nice cousin. I am getting better. I do not have strep throat anymore. But I still have to take my yucky pink medicine which I don't like. It tastes horrible! You wouldn't want to have it. It really doesn't taste good at all. And Daddy bought Peeps. And I got to eat some of it. I love you. You love me, too. From Alaina 4"

Carmen & our friend Daphne from Phoenix...she & Daphne had fun playing! Daphne was in love!

Pepa helping Carmen on her new rocking horse that Brian picked out!

This is her concentration face.

She really likes jumping in the bouncy!



Carmen & Brian went to MaMa & PaPa Link's house a few weeks ago. Carmen had a great time - she giggled (continuously) for the first time! Brian got it on video (thankfully so I could hear it! Unfortunately not the video I can download onto the blog page!) Here are some pictures from their weekend that MaMa took (thanks Martha!!!)

And here are my two favorites. You can see what's going on from Carmen's perspective. Alaina & Anna brought cats to the window for Carmen to see!


Anna is putting on a puppet show for Carmen. She made the stage background out of cardboard, and the characters, too. She told the story, using the characters. It was about Carmen's family, including Lilly and Simon. As MaMa said - quite creative.
