Nadia vs. the Bug

While we were on the patio this morning (Daddy was draining and cleaning her pool which had gotten rather "slimy"), Nadia saw a bug near her. She proceeded to pick it up between her fingers (killing it in the process) and was about to eat it except Mommy said "NO EAT!" She listened this time and promptly dropped the bug. If only she would always be so obedient! :-) Another gross thing she tried to eat from our porch a week or two ago was some bird poop. Yuck! That is the one BIG disadvantage to the fact that little family of robins likes to spend a lot of time on and near our back porch. Our porch has quite a few white spots now. :-( Unfortunately Nadia finds them enticing. She picks at the spots with her finger and then wants to lick her finger. I believe I've stopped her before she's actually consumed any. Yuck!!
Last night we went to the Carnival. On the way home from shopping, she fell asleep. This 3rd nap proved to be a blessing as it meant she was actually awake when she rode the carousel for the 2nd time. She smiled and laughed especially when she saw Mommy waving at her. This carnival was held near one of our town's parks so we spent some time there as well.
ink we'll greatly appreciate this new mower although it still won't be as easy as our riding mower was.
This week we got our refund from the ivf; we got $1,500 back of the $8,200 we paid in March. We got the refund because they didn't do assisted hatching and we didn't have any embryos to freeze. Last week we received $750 we weren't expecting. First there was a paper on my desk stating that I was going to be paid $500 for some work I had done over the past year on the curriculum (pleasant surprise!), then we got a $250 check that we weren't expecting. PTL!
