I knew we weren't alone about the no sock rule, but hadn't heard there was a population who needed their feet exposed to the elements too. Ami-- nurses are all about socks that's what I remember about my few hospital stays too, always trying to get weird bootie socks on me. Speaking of nurses, we would be delighted to have you come stay with us Jeanine, whenever.Emilyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11835924016744040120noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7852868884277826063.post-11348033146788543242009-08-31T13:49:19.689-06:002009-08-31T13:49:19.689-06:00Cherry wood so four years ago.

Her little feet hanging out of the crib are hilarious!<br /><br />I can't wait for little Elinor! Luis and Adriana, the couple across the street from us had a baby boy about two weeks ago, he is so cute! Every time I see him I get all excited for Elinor.Suehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00758354440910012121noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7852868884277826063.post-1981498479499884622009-08-29T11:49:10.908-06:002009-08-29T11:49:10.908-06:00Great story - and it prompted me to check on the c...Great story - and it prompted me to check on the crib that we're using. It was my little brother's and made it through both him and Michael... it looks good for Carolyn, too. (Darnit! I was thinking a new crib might be nice!) <br /><br />The uncovered feet things make me laugh as I sleep the same way - bare feet sticking out of the covers only. When I was in the hospital in labor with Michael one of the nurses kept covering my feet every time she came into the room. I said something after she did it twice, but it didn't matter - she continued all day.

Laura did that and hated socks most of the time:) Have fun picking out your new crib for Ells. She will be here so soon! I am thinking about coming out to see her in early October.

In cases such as this, you are very happy never to know what could have been. On the same note, Elinor you might be the death of your mom if you are more active then Scout.<br />Haley, they just don't make stuff like they used to...... fifteen years ago, cribs were more solid I am sure, let 15 years of good use be a testament to your fine and sturdy crib.<br />And Megan, I'm feeling good, so good in fact that I totally over did it this week and may have made myself sick. There was just so much to do! and also, I worked at RCC three (very busy) nights in a row.Emilyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11835924016744040120noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7852868884277826063.post-53640207921931053642009-08-21T13:24:58.099-06:002009-08-21T13:24:58.099-06:00This is hilarious!

Like just sticking them out from under the blankets aren't enough for that one, nope, they've got to be sticking out of the crib too.
