Bring on the Butter

Eva's finally all better.  It only took a week.  Poor baby couldn't keep a thing in her for days straight.  Saddest night was when she woke up four times in two hours, each time to throw up all over her crib.  As a result, she lost weight, somewhere between half a pound to a pound.  As if she wasn't already skinny enough.  I always called her my little String Bean.  It's almost humorous when she stands next to plump Leila who's shorter but chubbier.  Anyway, were now under doctor's orders to fatten her up, so bring on the butter.  I've been told to smear it on everything from bread, crackers, bagels...whatever I can think of.   We're also serving up plenty of cream cheese, avocado, cheesy pasta, eggs and anything else I can think of.  Hopefully she'll be chubby in no time. :)

  4. I grew up eating margarine, because my parents wrongly believed it was better for you. Two words: Trans-Fats. Ugh! Definitely, bring on the butter. It's better, anyway. Butter is better. That ought to be the butter conglomerate's slogan! Assuming there is such a thing as a butter conglomerate.

    Anyway...your kids are adorable, as you already know. Now, write some more!
