clapping, popping, sick and a messy eater

I made her some soup and she loved it but it was super messy! It was vegetable broth with lentils, pastina (tiny pasta stars), zucchini, spinach, garlic, and parsley. She's so messy though!
She woke up with crazy hair and I had to share it, too cute. She sleeps some kinda funny way.
Nana went and got us starbucks and when hers was gone she gave it to Bailey. Bailey acted like that cup was gold. Instead of coffee, she had orange juice this morning for the first time to try to boost her immune system so she doesn't get this yucky sickness that I've had.
Last weekend we (yes, Bailey helped because I wore her in the sling while I decorated) decorated the little tiny tree. I wrapped all the presents and put them under the tree. It was great.
New things with Bailey. She claps ALWAYS. You say "good girl"; she claps. You clap; she claps. People on tv clap; she claps. She gets a piece of food in her mouth by herself; she claps. It's too cute.
I also had to start popping her hand this weekend. She isn't phased by it though! She gets more upset by a stern "No" than anything. She is starting to listen more and more though but she is definitely still learning.
I've been sick this week. Monday night I started to come down with something and by Tuesday I had a fever. So I was out of work for three days and mom came yesterday morning to help with Bailey. I couldn't have done it without her. It was terrible! Not the flu because I didn't have aches or anything but it was definitely not fun. Bailey hasn't gotten it and I pray that she doesn't!
We're going to my parent's house this weekend to celebrate my dad's birthday and to shop! Fun, Fun!! I'm glad I'm feeling better, thanks to all for the prayers!
