Monday
misty · Mon, Feb 22, 2016Notes:
Very lazy day, though Milo was demanding again - probably because it’s Monday and Chase wasn’t here. She demanded to stand much of the day to play, and she basically wouldn’t play on her tummy or sitting (she got fussed nearly every time I tried to help her play that way).
Terrible naps all day - 4 of them. Not sure what’s going on with naps, but she slept through the night last night, which felt strange. I woke twice during the night but went quickly back to sleep. Chase didn’t wake up at all. We both felt tired today - is it possible that we got too much sleep?
We took a trip to the store earlier in the day; Milo interacted with some nuns who invited us to their “house” (I immediately knew they meant church, i.e., house of the Lord, but I thought it was sweet that they said “I’d like to invite you to our house” instead of “to our parish”); at first, Milo smiled at the ladies, and then she started crying for some reason. The nuns were good spirited about it, of course.
Tonight we ordered pizza because it was a tiring day. Milo ate some avocado, but wasn’t really interested - she just wanted to stand and play more.
Chase said that Milo was basically crawling this morning, but I was still dozing. I’ve seen her move her knees forward once or twice (while her head is up) and then fall flat. She is so, so close.
Something to remember: I sing to Milo when we walk places - to the tune of Frère Jaques. Example: We are walking, we are walking, to the store, to the store, to buy something for dinner, to buy something for dinner, yum yum yum, yum yum yum. I narrate almost all of our outings. People must think I’m nuts, but I don’t care. Milo doesn’t seem to mind my singing.
