Slice of Lime-Sweet Pea

As promised on Monday, here are some Sweet Pea pictures from when I got to dote on her. It's been a while since I did a musical Slice of Lime post but today it's called for. The music is as sweet as the baby. Since I am kind of a technological dolt in some ways I don't know how to embed a groovy little music player in a post so just click the YouTube thingy and listen while you read. And yes, Auntie Lime tie-dyed the socks Sweet Pea is wearing, as well as some sheets and onesies not pictured



Sweet Pea


Sweet pea
apple of my eyes
Don't know when and I don't know why
You're the only reason I keep on coming home
Sweet pea
What's all this about
Don't get your way all you do is fuss and pout
You're the only reason I keep on coming home

I'm like the rock of Gibraltar
I always seem to falter
And the words just get in the way
Oh I know I'm gonna crumble
I'm trying to stay humble
But I never think before I say

Sweet pea
Keeper of my soul
I know sometimes I'm out of control
You're the only reason I keep on coming
You're the only reason I keep on coming yeah
You're the only reason I keep on coming home

I've never heard this song before and now I'm wishing I knew it when my kids were babies... I would've been humming it all the time.

What a perfect tune for a precious little bundle.

Susie shame...

So know I know where Sweet Pea mush have got the Auntie nickname. Very nice pictures indeed.

Aww, she's great. (Blessings, Little Sweet Pea.) I love holding little babies. They're so light!

My 10-yr-old son fell asleep at my bed last night, and for old time's sake I carried him to his own room. It is soooooo much easier to carry infants!

Craver Vii said...

I got a chuckle out of the socks. :-)

precious baby,
forgive me but my thought in that last photo, despite your beautiful friend and her gorgeous child was,
Sweeet fancy Moses, that man's sideburn is bigger than the kid!!

:p Im sure he is lovely though and would never let it attack the defenseless child.

As peas go, that's a pretty darned sweet one. . .

And as to Susie, I'll just say, for the sake of sayin' so, that we had TWO kids after Molly turned 40.

Not, you know, that I'm advocating that for you, or anyone else. . . (Molly will tell anyone who asks, that 'geriatric maternity' - her words - is not for wimps. . .)

'Cuz, we know we're, like, definitely weird. . .
