Still Amazed

It still amazes me how easily this kid goes down now. Given that the first night she screamed for a half hour before falling asleep only out of exhaustion, and that she has cried herself to sleep almost every night since (up until a few days ago) … I just … it feels impossible to believe. It’s the little things. Tonight she was totally not tired when I put her down. And she just went with it. She stayed awake babbling to herself but didn’t cry. at. all. Why is this so exciting for me? My life is so weird.

Today in pictures:

We have cruising. How exciting. Obviously you can’t tell in this picture (we’re not at Hogwarts after all), but she is scooting along the couch.

Monica is now doing this headstand thing. I think she is trying to stand up without having something to pull up on … but she is can’t actually stand without holding on to something so her efforts are fruitless. Fruitless and cute.

We did a little shopping today for some fall clothing (don’t worry, we only spent like $17. No big if she’s not here when the weather cools). Upside down shopping is the best way to do it.
