Punky!
…Who, by the way, absolutely adores her new brother and gives him a bajillion hugs a day. And who also is obsessed with breastfeeding.
“Oh no, Mommy, he’s eating your tummy!” she said the first day.
“Yes, this is how babies eat,” I told her.
“Gross!” she said. “That is gross!”
Yesterday, she watched us again.
“Mommy, is he eating your bug bites?” she asked.
“Yes,” I said. “Babies get milk this way.”
“That is terrible,” she said solemnly.
Right now, I’m inclined to agree with her.
Hubs is taking care of her this week and she’s absolutely ruling him. She repeatedly tries to boss him around and when he tells her to stop, she shouts “Stop being naughty to me! Or you’ll have to go in the corner!”
I half expect him to do it, too.
>Wow – Punky is a gorgeous kid! Actually I volted for Baby Sr., but in a democratic society, the majority rules. I love your blog and this was actually the 2nd time I went there today. Does that make moi a loser??? Congratulations – Leslie
>Could she look more like you? You cloned her, didn’t you? : )Congrats on your new little guy!
>Punky’s a lovely girl! I’m so glad that one won out! I’m sure she must love being a big sister =)
>leslie – if you’re a loser, I’m a stalker! (I’m not!)Have you ever posted a pic of her before? She is so gorgeous! She is a Mini-You!!I’m glad she’s learning what those bug bites are good for!(Seriously – I can’t get over how cute she is – do you have to PAY to have that good-looking of a family??)
>Holy wow, Lindsey! She IS mini-you! She looks like she would rule the roost with that impish grin and those big eyes! How can you expect a dad to resist?Congrats again… good luck with the breast feeding!
>She IS YOUR MINI ME! Wow!

>Just wait until Punky starts nursing her dollies next to you. That’s what mine did;)Congrats – what an exciting time for you!
>Yay! She is adorable and so punky!Looks just like you. Good luck with the bfing. Hang in there. The first few weeks are torture, aren’t they?
>Haha! Too funny. I have a niece who puts my sister and brother-in-law on time-outs all the time! Congrats on your new addition and Punky’s new name!
>Punky is ADORABLE!! Love that smile…..just lights up a room! My almost 3 year old LOVES to send Hubby and I to the Naughty Step. She catches us at everything. And yes, we sit there, punished by the toddler.
>she is adorable! how blessed you must feel (well, except for the breastfeeding part) 🙂
>Laughing my arse off at the image of Punky bossing her daddy around.I love how the big strong men get wrapped around the kiddies fingers…Too cute.
>Oh Punky! Look how big you’ve gotten!! You little doll! You tell your Daddy what for… And make sure you put a bigger chair in the corner for him.
>Awww. I missed the vote but she’ll always be Suburban Baby in my eyes!Good luck with that breast feeding. yowch!
>Cute, Cute, Cute!!My son’s obsessed with breast feeding also…http://beneaththemaskmomoftwo.blogspot.com/2007/03/four-thing-i-learned-from-this-weekend.htmlAre you up for a meme game? I’ve tagged you! Enjoy. 🙂
>She is beautiful! Positively a mini me of you!
>oh…she DOES look like a Punky! She’s adorable…and yes, she is a mini-you!
>Butterfly, I used to have lots of Punky pictures up, but then someone started posting mommyblog pics and making fun of them and I took all mine down.
>She looks so much like you! Of course I don’t know what your dh looks like, but before I scrolled down to see the caption, I thought it was a baby picture of you. She’s gorgeous! So glad I found your blog.
>Hmm…well that was crappy of them!She’s too cute to make fun of!!So are my kids, right…RIGHT???:) J/k…nobody go making fun of them, though!
>Awwwwwwww!!
>She is gorgeous! Looks just like mommy!
>Of COURSE she is ruling Hubs–she is so darn cute! How could she not be in charge!??Congrats on the new baby:-)
>I LOVE PUNKY! LOL
>So, when you said Mini-Me, you really meant it!!So cute!!
>Wow – you coulda recycled your old name and just called her Lucinda, since she could pass for you!
>Beautiful girl!
>She sure looks like a Punky – so cute, and, as others have mentioned, so like you. Gorgeous !I actually think the voting was purposely slanted. Punky was the only name worth considering ( you knew you wanted it ! )Congrats on the birth and happy families. You deserve it !
>Maybe I’m naive but who has time to gather all the pics of babies on the web and make fun of them? Truly there’s no end to people’s cruelty.Punky is a beauty and I love to imagine her ruling the roost with an iron fist.
>Love love love it!!!
>Someone started making fun of baby pictures? What is this about?
>:) Too fun.(Side note: how far apart are Punky and Bruiser… which said really close together almost sounds like PUNKY BREWSTER. LOL!)
>ohmygosh punky is the cutest little thing….are you sure that’s not you as a child? wow!
>You should have just named her “Beautiful” but that’s too obvious.
>Your daughter is beautiful 🙂
>OMG she is a little biscuit!! Adorable. (and looks just like you!)~Monica
