Two Sick Little Girls Plus Bella's new song

So Bella has pneumonia and Gabby has RSV. Despite being ill we had a great time all week playing together (mommy's is exhausted)...however I am anxious for Bella to go back to school and so is she. She keeps asking to play with her friend Dazzer...who is a boy. Bella is doing much better although last night took awhile to calm her down after she said there were monsters under her bed. Gabby is still wheezing a lot...but I'm hoping it will clear up soon.

Here is Gabby claiming a ball she crawled after and picked up.
Bella putting all her "babies" (Curious George, Teddy, Shamu & Pillow) to sleep under their blankets. It is typically these 4 however she also put a few dolls, the remote and Gabby's toys to sleep as well this week. We had things covered in blankets all over the house.

Yesterday we played princess dress-up and Gabby even got in on the action...minus the heels.

Bath time...lots of bubbles and a mohawk.

Bella of course claiming the hippo has her toy even though it is Gabby's. I guess she thought holding on to it made it hers.
Gabby is not only crawling everywhere, but climbing up everything. Bella is a climber but I think Gabby may be even more excited about it. She'll use anything...us, case of water, stool, and Bella's desk. She's still pretty wobbly so I don't think walking is in the near future but she is funny to get down she does the splits until her butt hits the floor.

Bella's sippy cup was her motivation...I didn't think she'd be able to get up (check out that belly she weighed 20 lbs and 11 oz on Thursday).
but she did it without a problem.
Bella also made up a new song..."It's okay baby sister Gabby" She says this all the time when Gabby is crying...since I say it all the time. But this was pretty funny and you can hear Gabby cracking up while I'm holding her recording this.

Please tell Bella that Granna loves her new song. I'm glad she can make her baby sister laugh. Give both the girls a hug and I'll see them in 61 days :-)
