New Cute Thing! New Cute Thing! Gigi has spent the past few days mastering the art of the 'raspberry', making sputtery noises for anyone who will listen. She has been on the receiving end of tummy raspberries from Daddy and me since day one. Well, today on the changing table, I handed her a new toy from Grammy to keep her busy. She brought her Lamaze inchworm up to her mouth, grinned, and went "phfbbbbt!" on its chin.
Lest we think this is just a fluke, she did repeat performances tonight, giving her bathtub ducky and froggie giggly raspberries. My girl is a genius. The fun is just beginning.
About Me
- Mugs
- I'm originally from North America and I work in the travel industry. I started this blog when I was living in Baltic Europe and wanted to keep family and friends updated on my first pregnancy. I took maternity leave for a year, and came a little closer to figuring out what I want to be when I grow up - but alas, the job of "Katharine Hepburn" was taken. So after fifteen months of Stay-at-Home-Mom-hood, I returned to the workforce in January 2006. My husband and I have a daughter born in 2004 and a son born in 2006 (known on this blog as "Gigi" and "Halley" respectively). My company transferred me to a nice warm island in July 2006, where I get to spend the next three years (at least!) So why the name "Purple Scare"? Because when I created the blog, I was living behind the Rusted Iron Curtain, and I like the color purple more than red. Write me at purplescareblog@gmail.com.
