Happy Halloween!

Curiosity

Wondering how Natalie is doing..

Not knowing, is driving me crazy

I'm glad James took charge, otherwise I can see myself checking in every hour

But to know that Natalie was scared when James gave her to Jaime (the daycare owner), that he held her hand for a bit. Just tears at my heart

The minutes today go by so slow..

First day Jitters

Daycare starts today, 

Why am I so nervous? 

Just Now

Just now, hehe
James is making an ergonomic keyboard, & Natalie thinks it's her newest toy

Ummm ma!
Gheeeee
Ahhh ppa!

Daddy's lullaby

So Natalie was throwing a fit

She started whimpering and whining cuz we dimmed the lights and pretended to sleep

Then she started getting real bad, bawling 

The entire time belly on belly with James & I was laying next to them pretending to sleep 

It's sorta sweet 

But after she was crying heavily, James is holding and rocking and bouncing

And I can hear her whimpering

And James singing

She is doing the sad sighs and whimpers

So she's fine

She just knew it was bedtime and wanted to play

I never heard James sing like this! He's singing the exact lullaby I sing her

Haha 

I just sing random songs but the words are Nari Nari Natalie

Naaaa na na na na Nari ya

On a roll

3 oz gulped down, so my mom gave 2 oz more

Sorry not sorry for spamming

Bottle strike- over

I'm at work

But guiiiiiseeeee, gueeeesss what?! 

Natalie took the bottle!

Grandma quits

No surprise- my mom quit. She's so stubborn & wont admit it's her physical & mental inability. She's pointing fingers, & saying its to salvage/ not further damage her relationship with me.  Here's the thing, it's all in her head. She's a sensitive Susie that needs all the hair pets in the world.  I've only "critiqued" her in 2 areas, where I created "rules". Otherwise, I've let her have free reign.  

SHe only lasted 2 weeks, even though she says its 3. I can't count the first week, cuz she watched Natalie for a day and was out or commission for 4.  

She keeps doing this sad face with lip pout, and how she wished she raised Natalie for a full year (until she's 18 mo) TO Natalie. Like prop Natalie on her lap to say this, & baby kept crying. After she did this a couple times, I sorta snapped at her and pointed out baby is crying. If you take her from me during the sleep routine, help me out & don't let her cry. Hold her or something, 

Honestly, now that she quit her "job"- I feel like I don't have to hold my thoughts.  I've told her I had to bite my tongue, and only mentioned what I must as mama bear being protective.  

K, long rant over 

28 weeks

Has her own language 

Understands some of our words 

Went to pumpkin patch, and she's scared of giant pumpkins hehe

First Tooth at 6 months

10/14

Overnight, a tooth broke through.  Where did my baby go?

So today was Natalie's  6 month wellness checkup -

21 lb 5 ounces! 27 inches long! 

That makes her 

99% weight

94% length

100% head circumference, haha no surprise

She got four shots, 

And stopped crying right away but was whimpering for a while.  Even when we got home, so I gave her a little Popsicle treat

She doesn't know that it's just frozen mommy's milk, hehe

Baby snores

10/12/15-

Oh how sweet these little breaths are

Sometimes, like now, even through sleep deprivation and physical exhaustion I just can't bear to go back to sleep.  So I 

6 months

happy half birthday to my baby girl
So sad mommy has to work

27 weeks

special Saturday,
Natalie finally poop (lots of chocolate fudge brownie batter, hehe)

She's also getting the hang of mommy going to work, or James is getting the hang of all day daddy-daughter time.

Nightmare come true

This last hour, Baby rolled off the bed. The events leading to it, I have complete amnesia.  I've never experienced that inability to recall something that just happened.

What I do remember is my nightmare. Me standing there, just an arms reach but not really.  Then simultaneously seeing baby laying at the edge, and  rolling over the edge.  With me screaming & reaching for her, but she's a tad further than the arms reach.  She falls, face down, and for a second is laying there as I am I shock.  There's also husband, who popped up yelling as I'm picking up the baby.  She starts to cry in my arms, as I cry

Over and over
But I can't remember how this can happen.  Why I'm there standing, why baby is there laying in the edge..
It's such a nightmare

No poo poo- 1 week

Poor baby, Had gas pains all night
It's better during the day, but her toots smell like poop.
I wiped a poop smear off her crack in one of the morning diaper changing.   Hopefully she goes soon

No poo poo- day 4

Never skipped one 

& now on day four

Has the toots, stronger and louder

Has the morning squirm, hyper flexing so strongly she ends up coughing

Going to start prunes..

I feel so bad

Giggles

Just loving life of course

26 weeks

Rushed home, & honestly I'm quite sad that Natalie is still napping 

A bit of me is sad that she's perfectly fine without me, that she does so well with her daddy.

The last 3 days I went to work. Thursday and Friday, I came home in time for her final nap and we slept together. But today, she went straight into her third nap with her daddy

I can't wait for her to awaken

So I can smother her with smooches

No poo poo

First day, not pooping
