Photo-A-Day #1812
Eva and I played with a bunch of bubbles from her new No-Spill Bubble Bucket. Allison bought this for her for Easter (she got it early) and it is a lot of fun. There are Three wands in it too, so three kids (or adults) can play at once. I loved playing with this with Eva. I’m not gonna lie I am something of a Bubble blowing savant. I can pulse out a steady stream of bubbles out, catch one on the end and then blow out another stream of bubbles. If I try I can do this over and over, so much fun.
Today was one of those days when Eva was feisty as ever. She was in huge need of a nap and I put her in her crib. She cried and screamed but needed to nap. Finally I went in and held her and rocked her to sleep. I attempted to put her in the crib and she woke up. So I put her down and rubbed her back till she fell asleep. So, she slept for a while and woke up crying about an hour and a half later. She wanted nothing to do with me because I left her and she woke up alone. Just kills me. She needs more naps and if she’s gonna be upset about them, well that is what has to happen.
Hey nice shot, not an easy one!!
Keep up the good work.
Thanks Bella,
It was not easy at all. But very fun to do.
I know it’s hard. Sometimes you just have to let them cry and let them know you are still there. Routines are tough to establish.

Deborah,
Yeah they are tough moments, but I know I have to do this for her own good.
Cool post. I love when I can play with my nieces and nephews and just get taken back to where simple things like bubbles were just amazing lol…
Speaking of bubbles, this is probably one of my favorite pics of all time: http://blog.seattletimes.nwsource.com/storm/Bubble.jpg

Martin,
That is an amazing photo, simply amazing. thanks so much for sending that to me.
Your bubble blowing skills are impressive, Drew! I still love playing with bubbles – that no-spill bucket you got sounds awesome! And the picture you captured is nice!
Oh man, I remember those moments, of leaving them in their beds – definitely hard! I feel for you!
Loretta,
Thanks. I do take pride in being a good bubble blower. 🙂
Leaving Eva to herself was tough, but had to do it. Thanks for the solidarity.
