Maundy Thursday

Here's Bella with my grandparents. Usually Grandma has the magic touch and can calm Bella down...we just caught her during a fussy moment.
Here's my mom holding Bella before going to church for Maundy Thursday.

Bella likes to stand a lot! She's 2 months old and is doing a really great job of holding up her head...that's good because we're tired of holding her head for her since she likes to be held upright. Bella was good in church! She fussed a bit but with a little walking and the pacifier she fell asleep.

We've been eating lots of good, homemade food here on the farm. Homemade pickles, corn, green beans, applesauce and salsa. Grandma made chicken noodle soup a couple of days ago too.

The interesting news of the day was that a cow died because it had metal poisoning because it likely ate a nail or staple from the fence. It's sorta sad to me because she was still nursing (although I'm sure it's not called nursing if you're a cow) a calf. The calf is actually a steer and old enough to be on its own. I guess since I'm constantly nursing (or what feels like constant) then I'm sensitive to these kinds of stories.

So, I've figured out how to set up pillows so I can read while nursing. So far I've read 2 Oprah magazines, one InStyle magazine, 2 Parents magazines and I'm about to start a book! The Bright Side of Disaster.
