Good Morning Wonderful World!!

Hello World!! 
(Above photos taken by Tanya Burton)
Binky, Wawa, Boopie, Popo, or Paci?
 After contemplating and laboring over the question, we've decided to go with "MR. BINKS!!" which is exactly how we've been enthusiastically saying it..."MR. BINKS!!" Decisions, Decisions Decisions!! Some small, harmless regardless, and just-a-matter-of-personal-preference, such as how to refer to something...and some...I'm-scared-to-death-I-will-totally-scar-my-child-for-life-magnitude such as "Is it ok for Clara to nap on her tummy, which she prefers?"

But all in all, still Decisions Decisions and some more Decisions for brand new, wet-behind-the-ears, 1st time parents as well as for new self-discovering baby who may not know if her limbs are actually attached to her precious little body as she anxiously flails about!! As Clara curiously discovers randomness and seeks adventure in this new exciting world, we ask just as many questions of ourselves as new parents!!
Clara must be thinking :
"Oooh Mom!! Where am I?" and why is my hair sticking straight up? "
 "One thing's for sure, I LOVE my baths!!"
"...Until my friend, Mr. Gas Bubble pays me a frequent, but (still) unexpected visit, in which case, my lovely inquisitive appearance will quickly, in a matter of seconds change to this...
or this...
"I'm definitely meeting interesting folk...that's for sure!! I've never seen so many wrinkles beauty creases!!" (did I say that out loud?)
"Spending time with my boyfriend, Alexander!! He's such a serious guy..."
"Honestly...Why am I wearing this ridiculous(ly cute) outfit?? I look like a little boy!!"
 "Who in the world are these weirdos?? (I gather they think we're related? uh, hyeah...)"
 
 Jon and I are thinking :
Why does Desitin smell so bad?
How many times do we need to reorganize this pack n' play?
Why does the baby need to eat for an hour?
How come Clara's vitamins look and stink like hair dye?
 Is our child voluntary smiling, or is that just a fart?
The Botbyl Family will continue to experience new exciting discoveries each and every day!! Thank you so much for tuning in to "Botbylsmile" and enthusiastically sharing awesome adventures with us. God Bless!!
