Bess' Overnighter


So Bess (my Cousin Molly’s daughter) stayed over last night. She’s really cute but unlike most kids that aren’t sure about a situation (fuss or throw tantrums) she remains silent, which is really funny. Once she was comfortable around us, she was so adorable! This first picture of her is at lunch-tuna fish and crackers, which she loved.


After lunch it was almost time for her nap. On Molly’s list of “Bess things” is said she usually took a nap at 12:30. Unlike most kids that need a little coaxing for their nap, at exactly 12:30 she got up from Hannah’s rocking chair and laid down on the couch. That made me laugh so much, proof that child conditioning does work!

Although we had to keep Cooper (our overly barky dachshund) and Bess separate for the past two days, it was fun having her here. At one point I decided to take a video of her and Leah playing peek-a-boo behind the couch, she was having fun and giggling heaps. I showed it to her after. She started jumping up and down and squealing, whilst pointing to people in the video and saying their names. Like Hannah and “Anony”-I have to admit that is a tough one, Nino would have been much easier for her to say. She liked Anthony a great deal, probably because he’s tall and resembles her uncle Evan, or maybe it was because he threw her up in the air. I guess we’ll never know. :D
