I Like Being a Mommy

Now that I've been a mom for 5 months, I see why people love their kids so much. Sophia went to bed at 6:30 last night and Mike and I were sort of sad because we didn't get a lot of time together with her. I remember the days when all I wanted was for her to go to sleep.

She is doing so well. I've finally realized how often she needs to sleep which is preventing her from turning into "crazy, overtired baby" and giving me a lot more time to myself. A couple days after she turned 5 months she started sitting-up by herself. I still put something around her just in case she falls, but she's been quite stable. Also, she is getting really good at falling asleep by herself. We still have some random hard cries, but it is usually minimal. Her attachment is a little stuffed giraffe with silk on it. Pretty cute. I've also introduced another one that is similar to the giraffe and have been alternating between the two. I'm trying to think ahead for when I want to wash one of them...drama prevention.

That's all for now.

That's clever creating two "lovies". Not too long ago I had to make a late night trip back to Julia's house when Quintin's "Mr Blue" accidentally got left behind. A spare would have prevented that.
