Touring a bath house - now that was creepy

So, we are in this lovely town in Arkansas with not much to do. Our wonderful friends and their 2 sweet girls came down for a visit this weekend and it was SOO hot outside. We decided to cool off by going on this tour of an old-time bath house.

It was weird. It was odd. And, apparently it was for the rich people to enjoy. If you have never toured one - I don't even know how to explain it in an interesting way, but just go see one some time and tell me if you don't think it is strange. To top it off - their was a 19 minute bathing video you could choose to go see on your tour. We were going to ask the rating on this before we went in, but assumed it was a family tour and hoped for the best. :-) It was air-conditioned and this is really all we were going for anyway.

Our little boy is 1 week old today!!! Wow! Little girl keeps telling Grandma on the phone "he's so cute. he's such a little peanut."

Here are some of the fun quotes from little girl that I have written down to be saved for the baby books.

"Don't be scared baby Michael. It's just me, your big sister - not a scary monster."

"Can I pet him like a puppy?"

"Do you want some ice cream Michael? "Yes - I am very hungry and want some ice cream" - she made a little manly voice for Michael and answered for him. It was hysterical!!!

When the nurse at the hospital started putting Michael's hat back on him after we were done looking at his sweet face through the nursery glass window, she said "Hey - what's she doing to my baby brother?" with an angry little look on her face.

Little Girl has been cracking us up and she is totally loving on this new addition to our family. She is exhibiting all the classic signs of an amazing big sister and so far........knock on wood.....cross my fingers.....say a quick prayer to Jesus.....she hasn't shown too much jealousy. I'm holding on to that joy as long as I can people!

Grandma arrives tomorrow and will be staying the week with us. Yay!! Yippee!! Hooray!!! Momma needs a haircut and highlight and, well, yeah, some sleep too. Then, Grandma is going to take little girl back to her house on Friday until we arrive back through town in Missouri on Tuesday night to pick her up after our baby shower! Little girl will have so much fun at Grandma's and we will enjoy the extra bonding time with our son.

I took a few more pics of the little man this weekend and thought I would share these with you all as well. It's so hard not to constantly take pictures of that adorable little nearly 6 lb. boy's face!

As always - we love and miss you all. Thanks for all the notes and all the love! We feel it and we're throwing it back your way!
