I blinked

So we are getting ready for a multi-family garage sale this weekend. Woo hoo! Getting rid of stuff. Yay! I started dragging stuff up from the basement before I realized the Penny factor. She wanted to go through all of it. She was especially interested in her baby play mat....here's a memory jogger of Penelope when she used her play mat on a regular basis.

And this was a few days ago:

Puts me in shock! This was one of the record breaking heat days we had. Until a couple of days ago we only had one window AC unit, and it is in the living room. Since Penelope's room was stifling hot, she and I had a sleepover on the floor. She slept on her play mat and I slept right next to her. Any time she closes her eyes and falls to sleep, this is what I see:

No lie! Her 3-year-old face looks just like this when she is sleeping. Okay...maybe not so Mr. Magoo as her first few weeks of being a wrinkly newborn....maybe more like this miracle blanket photo:

Just a side note: halfway through the night Penelope and I woke up and moved to mine and Chris's and Cece's bed. Then she wet the bed....sigh. The next day we bought an AC for her room. We are okay suffering, but our dear offspring? Nope! (it's strong enough that our room gets pretty cool too so now we are all pretty happy)
