one step closer to being normal again

today is the first day since i left on maternity leave that i'm going to work in a normal bra. and, since i went shopping (again, for the first time in a long time) last weekend, i have a bra that fits well! no nonsupportive nursing bra, no uniboob nursing tank. all that's next is to loose all this extra weight i'm carrying around and i'll be back to normal completely. of course, i'm not completely free yet; i still have to change into a tank for sleeping and nissa's bedtime feeding :P

last night nissa was full of interesting ideas. when she first came home, we had our usual play session in the frontroom with her climber and the exercise ball. she's really getting into the exercise ball- she likes to pat it, lay on it and push it around. i like to pull her on top of it and roll her side to side. yesterday, she pushed and walked along behind it the length of the dining room. i think that's the longest she's walked yet! i got some of the action on video (with my phone, though- yuck) for the return trip.



then later, when we were playing in her room, she noticed gibson's tail brushing up against one of her toys as we pet him. she then went over to his tail, picked it up and started brushing the toy herself with is tail; essentially wagging it for him. too wacky!
