The other day I counted the weeks until Audra turns 1 year old. Then it was 18 weeks away. Now it is 17 weeks away. How is that possible? That also means Christmas is 15 weeks away and I have yet to start my shopping. Oy.
Audra's eighth month has greeted us with a cold. Babies with colds are no fun. Sucking snot out a screaming baby's nose at 5am is really no fun. But the fact that she is a little more cuddly than normal is a pretty nice trade off.
We are also saying good-bye to Summer and gearing up to greet Autumn. Really my favorite season with the exception that after it is Winter.
Not much has changed in our day-to-day. Audra still gets up before the sun everyday but as much as I hated her to get in the habit of nursing that early I have done it more and more lately. I will nurse her for 10 minutes and she usually falls back to sleep for another hour and a half. So I get to go back to sleep until 8 sometimes. Sometimes is the key word. Sometimes she doesn't and she is up and babbling like a brook at 6:15am. And I start counting down the minutes until nap time. I think I will either chalk it up to a growth spurt or the fact that we had a solid routine so she decided to change things up on me. This morning the drama started at 4am. No one was happy.
It was really hard to get her to look at me because she was obsessed with the sticker!
Happy almost weekend friends. Cheers to Friday eve! Eat some ice cream to celebrate. Or wash your hair and change out of your pajamas. I am choosing the latter.
