Homegirl Likes to Sleep

I love this little monkey. There are rare nights, like last night, where she sleeps. And she sleeps hard! Last night, she went to sleep around 10 and didn't wake up until 6 in the morning! HOORAY!! Too bad my allergies have been working overtime so I wasn't able to enjoy it as much. Boooooooo.

And what is Nyla doing right now? Sleeping again! YAYAYAYAYA. These little pleasures are what I am living for these days. I used to live for happy hour and staying out late with friends. Now if I get to sleep for more than 6 hours, I feel like I've won the lottery.

Yesterday, I assembled Nylabear's little jumpy seat from Grandpa Toms. Adorable. She looks too cute in it!
Hey everyone. I'm in my jumpy seat.
She played in it yesterday for about an hour, then gave up and started crying. I'm not sure she knows what to do in it. She spent most of the time trying to put all the toys in her mouth.

That's her new addiction. She used to be addicted to pooping on her mother, then she was addicted to barfing on me. Now she's got a fever to put things in her mouth. Dresses, shirts, burp cloths, toys, blankets, EVERYTHING. And the drool has started as well! I think I'm going to have to put her in an all-plastic suit to keep the drool from soaking her clothes. If you hold Nyla facing outward, she will drool so bad that it leaves a puddle at your feet. For real, a puddle.

Lastly, she is still eating like a little piggy. Eat, eat, eat...that's what our little girl is doing. Nursing and formula going at the same time right now. She's a hungry little monkey. Do you like how I refer to our baby as animals? I think all parents do this; the children are monkeys, elephants, little tigers, baby bears, cows, etc...My favorite for Nyla is calling her my baby bear. Or as her nickname has come to be, my Nylabear.

Oh Nylabear, your mama loves you so much!

  1. Congrats that Nyla is liking sleep! The putting things in mouth and drooling at going to last a LONG time, so you might as well get used to yourself and everything else being damp :)I like animal names for babies, too, my son is usually a monkey, like right now he's trying to "help" me write this comment, so it's taking FOREVER to fix all the little errors he's making. Let me know if you're in P-town ever, I'd love to see you and meet Nyla!
