Baby In A Basket

Yesterday Cindy and I were in the kitchen while Danee was playing in the living room, jabbering to herself in her adorable baby voice. After a while, we noticed that her voice was sounding slightly different. Not really muffled, but different. Peek in to the living room, and what do we see?



That pink basket is where her toys in the living room "live". I put "live" in quotes because it's really only in theory, or after bedtime that they live in there. As soon as Danee wakes up, and gets on the floor, she goes right to the basket, flips it over, and spreads the contents as far and wide as her little arms and legs can get them.

And this time, she'd decided to see how they feel, by putting herself in the basket... She didn't really seem to mind. When she heard us laughing, she giggled and kicked her feet.



She really didn't seem to have any desire to get out of her box, so Cindy reached down and peeked under...



...and was greeted with that smile... that amazingly rewarding smile that Danee blesses us with on a regular basis!

Today she's not feeling very well, has been very cranky and somewhat pukey, so it's nice to look back at yesterday to remember just why it is that she has us so wrapped around her chubby little finger!

  2. That is so cute. Babies sure do have a way of making the bad times, (crying all night, throwing up 24 ounces of stuff the minute you enter Church, etc, etc, etc.) with sweet and hilarious moments like this.
