It has been a bit of a rough month..Where once I could brag how easy she was to put down to sleep has come back to nip me in the butt. No longer able to fall asleep in my arms at church = leaving to drive around till she falls asleep, giving in and laying her in our bed till she drifts off than walk ever so quietly and slowly to her room and hold my breath as I lay her in her crib praying she doesn't wake up. Wanting to shed some tears trying the Ferber Method and lasting only 5 minutes till I can't handle the screaming anymore. Got the picture? I know woe is me..
Other than her change of bed time she is still such a happy going baby. She is beginning to venture out and slowly getting to her knees wanting to get to outreached toys. Soon it'll be time to baby proof our place, yikes!
She enjoys sucking her thumb through the pacifier hole..smarty pants. Loves being around other people, playing with bubbles and went swimming for the first time which wasn't as successful as I thought but the pool wasn't very warm so who can blame her.

She loves Ritz crackers and will only eat sweet potatoes with them, still has to have her wubbanub at all times, she is already little miss photogenic; you hold a camera up and say cheese and she certainly grins from eat to ear. Is a big girl and sits in the grocery cart, if given a toy and a non toy object of course she goes for the non toy.. She loves playing with my hair and face when I'm laying next to her haha so cute.
Hates: still is such a girl and hates sitting in her dirty diaper for very long, cries when you leave her alone in a room even if she can still hear your voice! Not a fan of laying in the grass on her back she doesn't cry just has a funny expression on her face.

ReplyDeleteI love the bubble picture! She's so intense! And are her eyes brown??
ReplyDeleteI'm in the same boat with Rue as far as sleeping goes. She really spoiled me, too, with her easy sleeping habits the first 6 or 7 months of life. Now it's more work, and no more naps at church, either! And you know, crying-it-out didn't work for Fitz either, not until he was 11 months old. So you may just have to suck it up, jump through hoops to get her to sleep for a few more months, and then try the cry-it-out again when she's older (if she still needs it by then). That might sound like a long time right now, but it'll be over before you know it.
