Jinxed Myself

I spoke too soon. Or maybe I jinxed myself. She woke up two mornings ago at 630, downed a bottle and wen back to bed. Unfortunately the electricians came at 730! Last night she woke up at 1230 and couldn't be soothed. Finally resorted to a bottle before she slept until 800 this morning. Still not too bad but could be better. But I blame the fever. She's been sick for a few days. I think it's coming to a head today. The girl loves medicine, especially infant Advil.

Tzo Tzo & More

The other day I was laying on the floor of Alex's room dozing while she was playing. The next thing I know, she's standing over me with a clean diaper and says "tzo tzo", stinky in Chinese. Sure enough, there definitely was tzo tzo-iness. She will now regularly (usually) tell me she has a stinky. Now if only she would say it before she goes.

Over the weekend I saw her pick up a small piece of something off the floor, walk over to the garbage in the kitchen, drop it in and continued on her way. My baby is growing up so fast!

We've reached a (huge) milestone in our sleeping habit. She has slept straight through the night with no waking or feeding for he past two weeks. Halleluia! Ok, so there was one night that I did have to give her a bottle, and another night where I had to soothe her back to sleep by rocking her ... But two nights out of two weeks. Those are good stats. I'll take it.

With that said, that doesn't mean that mommy isn't waking up in the middle of the night worrying about her being too cold, diaper too wet, or whatever else. Sigh...

Hairdresser Pt. 1

We had to take a break while unpacking to do mommy's hair. Can't unpack with bad hair after all.

Hairdresser Pt. 2

Hairdresser Pt.3

Look at that expression. Future occupation? She's got the two hand motion going on, one to brush and one to smooth.
