Meet Hiccup




This is Essie's best friend, Hiccup. He lives above the changing table in her room. Strange name, we know. Nearly every time Essie is having fun with him, she gets the hiccups so...it stuck!

Like any best friend, Hiccup can brighten her day and make her feel better about anything. Well, except for lotion time after her bath......







Diaper changes usually end up being 10-15 minutes long. She will just lay on the table and look at him with the biggest grins you've ever seen. She talks to him and has even giggled a few times. And, boy do her legs and arms go crazy! It's pretty amazing - she can be screaming her head off when we lay her down. Once she realizes where she is, she's in a totally different mood! (Remember, mommy's camera isn't quite fast enough to catch the smiles. She's hoping daddy will get her a new one soon!!)



We even took him to PA with us so she could have a taste of home.


PS...Mommy is feeling much, much better. So far, Essie is showing no signs of catching the cold!
