Day 58

Meeting Auntie Barb was pretty kewl last night. She helped Nana babysit Mika, though it sounds like there wasn't much to it. According to Nana, Mika slept, got up once for a bottle, and slept again until we got there. Nice! Especially since she slept through the hour-long visit with G just before. She had her Daddy up early again today and I think they both ended up passing out in their chairs in the living room until I got up shortly after 10.
Mika has to have a daily scalp massage currently due to some cradle cap action. I grease her up with this awesome apricot oil from the Burt's Bee's baby line. Seems to work well and is nice and light. Smells awesome too.
Ikea was fun. We finally bought a couch. A new couch. Neither DaddyR or myself had ever purchased a new couch before. It's this delightfully awful orange-red coloured thing. It'll match the big painting in the living room well. The sofa is also a bed. The back folds down in a typical funky Ikea way. The sofa is also low to the ground with a wide seat to make life easy and a little safer for Mika. No edges. We got the matching coffee table which is also has no sharp edges and sits low to the ground. Its being delivered on Tuesday afternoon so now we have to panic like mad tomorrow night rearranging things to make room for it. Anyone want a double futon?
We went for dinner at Grandma's today. It was uberyummy as always. Mika wore jeans and an AC/DC shirt to shock and delight her Grandma. Ok, well, it was so *I* could *try* to shock and delight, but I think I wore that out when I was 14. Grandma had treats for Mika: a rubber ducky for the bath and a toy! A vibrating bug pull toy. New toys for the Toy Bar are always fun and welcome. Hopefully it will distract her from the fact that her helium balloon is deflating. Thanks Grandma!!

Had sad news of both loss and sickness that dampened the day.
