First Carousel Ride
Life is inching back to normal now, as I've returned to work and M is no longer hallucinating about his fan base.
It's nice to be lucky enough to have a job that I adore, so that having to leave my recuperating husband and wonderful baby is at least somewhat compensated by the fact that I love what I'm doing.
Last Saturday night we headed to Chesterfield Mall, just to get out of the house for a little bit and do something different. Chesterfield Mall has a carousel, and when Zozo saw it, she went crazy. She pointed and shrieked and laughed and giggled. Her whole little face lit up, and we just ate it up. So, after dinner, when we walked back down the mall and came upon it again (and got the same response out of her), we decided that she should go for a ride.
She laughed the entire time. It was just about the best two bucks we've ever spent.
Unfortunately, we didn't have either of our "real" cameras with us...only M's cell phone. So, here's one of the photographs we got that was actually halfway decent. She's not grinning in this one, but at least you'll get the idea. I tried to get one with her laughing as they were going around, but apparently the shutter speed in a cell phone camera isn't quite up to dealing with motion, so they all looked like blurry messes.

Nothing much new to report. Thanks go out to Mom and Dad Z for taking care of the little one for us yesterday, and to Mom Z for coming over today to take care of the little one and the big one. Thanks also go out to Mama for the sweet Valentine's Day card...it was unexpected and made us very happy.
Happy Valentine's Day to all you lovebirds out there.
And Happy Blog Milestone to yours truly, who is celebrating her 300th post with this very one.
