Both mommy and daddy are quite weary today after a rough night. Nothing seemed to console Liana - nursing, bottle, blanky, ducky - NOTHING during the night last night. We tried the "cry it out" method and after plenty of crying and screaming and then a rescue attempt by mommy I went in and was able to get the Nugget to finally go to sleep. All of this took place from 11:45 to about 2:something. Mommy will hopefully get a nap today and let's hope this is a blip on the screen! No matter what, though - we love our little girl.
On another note, after seeing the Nugget crawl around lately with a bottle or a toy in her mouth I had a great idea for a posting caption - "Look Ma, No Hands". But since the camera never seems to be around to capture these funny moments there is no picture for now! Yes, as noted Liana is crawling everywhere and she is recognizing more words every day. It just amazes me how quickly she picks up on things. A good example - this morning in bed (after the rough night) I was rubbing my hands together, (kind of Myagi style from "Karate Kid") while she watched in amazement. I said "rub?" and when I held my hand out flat she took one of her hands and rubbed it back and forth on my hand - just like that! It puts a lot of self-inflicted pressure on to constantly teach her something new.
