Today, I let her fall asleep in her crib on her own for naptime. She cried a little but it was more from being tired than anything else. When I peeked in on her, she was sucking her thumb and sound asleep. (This was more of a milestone for me than her since she has probably been able to do it for a while...I'm the one that needed to learn that is was OK for her to cry a little before falling asleep).
Bathtime is still no fun. There's a lot of screaming during baths. Not sure why. I can do every other day with baths but she's not liking them much at all right now. On the other hand, I LOVE my showers, I'm just having trouble finding the time. So unfortunately, I'm on the every-other-day plan, too.
Here are some photos from yesterday:
It's hard to believe she's only been home for a week!
Glad things are continuing to go well! Lia seems so comfortable in the pictures.
ReplyDeleteAnd I finally ended the "mommy on every other day shower cycle" by getting a new hair cut that requires me to wash my hair every day. Ian makes sure to allow me time to shower before he goes to work now and it's made life so much happier!
Only one week and you have come so far. A huge amount of change for everyone in the family, especially Lia and you, and things going so smoothly - must be the Lord's doing! What an awesome God we serve!
ReplyDeleteI just love seeing her already exploring in the kitchen cabinets!
ReplyDeleteThese kid are so quick on somethings. Matti cried a bit at nap and night night for about a week maybe 2 but now no problem at all. We read,pray,sing then rock. She goes to sleep but then wakes up when I stand up to lay her in bed. I then lay her down as she sleeps on her back (flat head) and tell her what a good girl she is and keep saying as I walk out the door. Works for her at least.
ReplyDeleteHow fun to explore a new world. I remember when we'd move to a new house, the exploring around the house the yard the land, was exhilarating! Sweet post Angela.
