Such a thoughtful onesie for our squirmy worm, thanks Jenny<\/a>! Mom liked playing with the gifts, too. This one is from our neighbor, Shau-ling. The Hooter Hider<\/a> I wanted, courtesy of Ele<\/a>. A great book from the “grandparents” William and Joyce<\/a>. Plus a cute onesie that someone else owns<\/a>!
