May 11, 2009Yeah............Mommy was sick yesterday. I felt like crap. Even after I took my bath, I still felt like crap. So Lil Miss was a bit fussy and we were laying on the couch. Apparently we fell asleep -- and Daddy took a picture. I should kick him -- I LOOK sick. But it's a cute picture and, honestly, it's my favorite way to sleep now. I love cuddling with my little monkey -- she's such a good cuddlebug.
May 12, 2009So Mommy worked today. And Lil Miss didn't. She stayed home with Daddy. And gave Daddy a taste of what Mommy has been trying to tell him for the last six weeks -- she's a good baby, but she's not always the easiest baby to take care of. She's put herself on a bit of a schedule -- wakes up between 7 and 9 and is awake til early afternoon (2 to 3ish). She wants to play in the mornings. She'll take little power naps, but not sleep much. Then she wakes up about 5 or 6ish and is awake until about 9 or 10, when she puts herself to bed for the night, just waking up to eat.
Daddy got a taste of Lil Miss being awake for a few good hours today. Maybe he won't think my job was so easy anymore. (c:

Don't look at the face -- look at how well she's sitting up!!! (Even if she does need some help)So work wasn't bad, but it was hard. I just wanted to get everything done as quick as possible so I could get home. I missed my little bunny. As soon as I came home, even though she was asleep, I went and picked her up and held her for a bit and felt a bit better.
You would be proud of me -- I didn't really cry. It was hard and it sucked, but I didn't cry. It took longer to leave this morning than usual though, cause I didn't want to leave her and she was rather fussy.
I love her though. She seemed happy to see me tonight and was very sweet and cuddly. It's so good to come home and go to pick her up and see her smile when she sees me. Nothing better.

Watching Transformers (one of our favorite movies) with Daddy.She likes the TV. I think she just likes the moving pictures and the flashing lights, but when she's laying on our bed with us, or on the couch with us, like above, she watches the TV. I know she doesn't understand it, but she watched Transformers with Daddy for a good twenty minutes. It was very cute.
Daddy says we need to get her some Baby Einsteins. He says they start at 3 months -- and that will be here before I know it!

Best picture we've managed of her sticking her tongue out. Her "yuck" face (like when she spits out her bottle cause she's done). It's TOO cute!She's getting big. A friend of ours who hadn't seen her in like three weeks came by this evening and was just like "Wow, she's getting bigger!" I couldn't agree more. She's getting very heavy and very long. I think she's grown again. Her two month doctor's appointment is coming up in like a week and a half, so they'll be able to tell me how much she weighs and how long she is.
Though I'll also have to get her immunizations done. NOT looking forward to that part.

And she's finally out. Mommy still doesn't feel good, so it's cheesecake time and then? Sleeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeep.


You did it! And you all survived. I know it was hard. I can't believe you didn't cry. I would have! After all, she's his daughter, too. Let him share the times-good and bad. It will make you a stronger family.
ReplyDeleteRemember the picture of you at about 6 weeks sitting "in Anjie's lap" and both of you entrhaled with Sesame Street? I always loved that one, even though it made me extremely nervous to move my hands long enough to take the picture. But she held you well.
I gave my Baby Einsteins away, but I think I donated them to a classroom where I can take them back. I'll check when I get to work. They are really good. I particularly liked the one with toys and classical music. I think it was Baby Motzart but maybe Baby Bach. I'll have to see. I would know it if I saw the cover.
I hope you're all well.
Love,
Mom
Oh -- trust me, I WANTED to cry. I had just told myself that I could do this and this was okay and I wasn't going to cry. But it was damn hard.
