2 teeth

Leah is getting her second tooth in. This has not been fun. She was up every single hour last night...and then today she has been super weepy and screaming and upset. We gave her some tylenol and teething stuff and hope this stops soon!


We got her hair in her first pony tail and it looks super cute. I'll have to post a pic later.

play date

We met up with our zzq4z2szz1a (that is leah) playgroup and she played with 6 or 7 babies. She was the only one who didn't want ot put things in her mouth. It was so funny. She has this rabbit that has teether toys (yes, she is teething but other than being fussy and showing teeth, you wouldn't know). So I gave Leah the toy and she just stared at it....then one baby grabbed it ant put it in his mouth and she watched. She took it back but then a few minutes later a little girl took it and put it in her mouth....then 2 others did. When you looked around the circle, they were all grabbing things and trying to knaw on it but Leah just looked at those babies like, "EEEEW. You fools are crazy."


Right now we are watching Kendra (classy) and Julian is feeding the baby some applesauce. She is making noise like ahheyyyyguu ahhhhh.

I cut my hair and have a mom-bob. It was time. I wore the bun every day and couldn't ever do it. So, it's about 4 inches shorter and easier to manage. I am sure it will still be in a bun a lot but at least there is potential to wear it down. When we got to the park for our playgroup picnic, lots of the moms had cut their hair too. I guess it's just the thing to do when you have an 8 month old :)

first tooth

Well, the results were good for Leah and she is fine! I am happy.


My first Mother's Day has been great. Last night we went out with Lola and Grandpa to a steak restaurant. Then this morning I went to Pilates and came back and Julian made me chocolate chip pancakes. Then we went to downtown where I returned something I got about 3 years ago and still got 20 dollars back.

I realized that Leah has her first tooth coming through...there were three little bumps so I felt and it's her tooth. And then....I cried. Not for long though.

Right now I am making dinner and we are just hanging out. It was a great day :)

dr. appt

Well, today we took Leah for a brain scan because the doctor wants to make sure she is not having seizures. I am sure it will turn out okay but it was pretty sad to watch her all sad-faced. They had us try to kee her up until midnight an then up at 5am....she ended up going to bed around 11pm bc she couldn't stay awake any longer....then today she fell asleep sitting up. At the appt, she had 27 little electrodes hooked up to her head and they wrapped her head in gauze. She was crying and it was so sad but she did look so cute. We will find out her results by Monday they said..... Prayers and good thoughts are welcome, but I have a feeling that things are okay so don't worry.


We did take pics of her on our phones and I'll have to find a way to upload them...

Food!


Leah still doesn't care for solid foods...we have tried rice cereal, oatmeal cereal, sweet potatoes, bananas, avocado, apple sauce with banana, and I just made some more apple sauce.


Today we went to Pixieland and she rode on the carousal. Yesterday she rolled over about 12 times which is a change bc she didn't before. Oh, she is waking up and wants to play. Got to go.

a big congrats to Kelly who is having Lauren as we speak and to Paige who found out she is having a little girl in late August. Leah can't wait to play with your little girls :)

yum yum

Well, today I made her some sweet potatoes....My only regret is they aren't organic. At first I said I didn't want to use them (Julian went out and got them for her at lunch time which was very nice of him) but then he told me that I was being ridiculous pretty much. So I just scrubbed those suckers and then made her the first batch of baby food.


Rice cereal was a waste. It's so adorable to watch her with it, though. When the spoon comes towards her she shuts her mouth tight and closes her eyes. Then we get the occasional swat and splatter.

Leah has been sitting up and playing with toys a lot more lately. It's very cute.

We'll see how the sweet potatoes go tomorrow.

solids

Well, we did NOT start them this weekend....because when it came down to it, we just weren't ready! We bought the rice cereal and were prepared to start but then I just wasn't ready to start feeding her real food yet....so we will revist it next weekend. Julian agreed with me too. We DID buy a baby cook that steams and purees the food for when I make her baby food at home. I am excited about it.



This weekend I had Julie's first bachelorette party with Sarah and we had a blast. It was the longest that I had been away from Leah and I really missed her, but it was still a very fun weekend! We went to a Tranny show and to a day spa for massages and facials.

Next weekend we are going to a baby sign intro class at Pam's. I am excited!

Leah is still sick...but she is getting much better. She screams bloody murder when we suction her. It's about her least favorite thing ever.

Leah is still not fee
