lazy

baby and mama are sharing a lazy, sunday morning together. we don't get to hang as much in that open-ended, timeless sort of way anymore and i'm so loving it. we're both in our cozies, just lounging and chatting and snacking and cat-napping. daddy's off trying to provide some sort of large animal for us, the november sky is gray and calm, and i'm putting off doing anything too structured. but baby won't let us chill for too long. a big sound just came from her mid-section, and we're out of wipes, which means i've been using the fancy, homemade, organic, reusable wipes i made while i was preggers and optimistic, and let me tell you, while the apricot and calendula oils are lovely, cleaning off a piece of cloth covered in baby doodie, is not. els has a little baby cold, so there's lots of stuff coming out of her today. i think her body is trying to get rid of the bug and so we're going through lots of diapers. but i guess that's all the structure i really need. hang out. eliana poops. we change the diaper. and continue. she's such a trooper. but i think we should head out doors to get some fresh air to her mucus-y nose and clear her out a bit. plus she needs a good nap and we still nap best while on mama. lucy is barking at the back door, the day continues in it's special, gray, timeless way.
