Well, I'm sick of talking about sleep (and not really doing it...) I'm so tired of there being 5000 conflicting opinions about it - so I'm going back to parenting by instinct, I felt much more successful... We're still having issues with Nahanni going to sleep on her own, but I think she's very young and she's learning to soothe herself with her thumb and so I'm going to give her time and I really think she'll get it on her own (okay, with a little help from us). My heart tells me that it's too much for her right now, too soon - and besides, it just seems downright cruel. I've been able to stomach it and we will do it in the future if she doesn't learn on her own, but I have confidence that it will all fall into place in due time.
Otherwise, here are just some plain old pictures of life. We went to the Aquarium with Tobias and his 2 kids, Noe and Maddox and we put Maddox's anemone hat on Nahanni. It was so cute and funny, and although she looks so sad, she was actually laughing until so many people noticed her and kept staring and talking to her with it on. So cute! We had a lovely time there, and I thought and hoped that Nahanni might enjoy it as something interesting to look at - I think it worked as you can see in the photo.
She's doing very well, she weighs just under 14lbs and she rolls over every time you put her on her back - although she gets pretty frustrated when she does it. I can see how much stronger she gets every day and how she'll probably crawl before I can get everything babyproofed...
She's wonderful and sweet and generally irresistable.
