having a winter baby means that in the 17 days this little child has been on earth, she has only smelled the outdoors 3 times (1 when leaving the hospital and 2x for outings to the pediatrician's office)
i recall that my spring and summer babies were out and about, being strolled about the neighborhood, accompanying me on on errands, going to library story time from a few days old (okay maybe older, but you get the point).
so far, baby GG's awake hours are spent
- in the swing (for 3 minute intervals as she can't take the over stimulation of being rocked and having to stare at scary toys going around the mobile AND listen to the music at the same time. Simulation Overload. She's crying less than 5 minutes after being put in that thing)
- walking around the house looking at photos of her brothers and the family hanging on the walls
- chilling in the baby sling while i do chores like the dishes or respond to email or read blogs
- hanging over my shoulders, just chilling

Hey look, her days sound like my perfect idea of leisure time, hehe. Don't you just *love* baby swings and slings? Two of my "must haves".
Take that girl out! She needs a trip to Target.
Minus our one outing a day, her day sounds just like Carter's.
i love love the slings and swings, DEE!
LOL@amy! i was thinking of doing that before this winter storm hit us! how are you guys holding up? stay inside now. it's slippery outdoors.
the books say its good to talk to them too. i bring her to bedtime storytelling with the boys. so she's loving green eggs and ham too! LOL!
