This was the second week of Jenna's new lifestyle sleeping away from me. She's doing great and really thriving in every away. She is such a sweet little thing! I started her on rice cereal yesterday and we even got it all on video but I will not put you through that. You are welcomed! ;)
What else? Oh, I had a little breakdown yesterday as I washed, folded and put away a bin filled with newborn, 0-3 months and 3-6 months clothes away. You say, but Danaly, your baby is only 5 months old! Why would you put away 3-6 months clothes? Well, dear reader, that's because we grow them big in this family. The kid is in 9 months clothes. It's true. Also true is that I find it a little disturbing that I'm having such a hard time with milestones this time around. If you've been following me since Lucy's birth, you know that's not the Danaly we know and love.
I admit I was in a hurry for Lulu to grow up and leave behind that infant stage. Every milestone was celebrated not mourned. This time around everything I do is followed by the thought that it might be the last time I experience it and it makes me sad :( Grow up, you say... and I hear ya!
I blame it on breastfeeding! or hormones or those irresistible sweet cheeks, or those arm rolls... oh my, have you seen those arm rolls? Go take a looksie. Who can blame me?! I don't.
Lulu took this one :)
In another galaxy far far away, Lulu and I have been test driving homeschooling and it's been fun/scary, emphasis on scary. We worked on mastering the use of scissors and glue this week, be ready for some stories on that next week! She's totally into cutting things now. I even let her cut coupons off the newspaper shoppers yesterday and she did a decent job. I told her the other day that if she keeps it up her fine motor skills are going to win her a trophy or two one of these days. She seemed excited ;)
We cut things that start with "C"...
