I hate when I intend to do something, and then that intention falls away, like a leaf from a tree in autumn. But let's see if I can do what I intend, and update this blog more often!
My beautiful daughter, Alissa Grace, was born September 26, 2012. She is now 23 weeks old. She is such a doll. I will come back here to share more about the birth experience later.
As a "get my feet wet" again post, I thought I'd describe what I imagine goes through Alissa's head when she is falling asleep for a nap:
"Mommy always is here when I fall asleep and is gone when I wake up. I'm gonna pretend to sleep to make sure she doesn't disappear."
*Closes eyes* a few seconds pass *opens eyes*
"Oh goodie! Mommy is still there!"
*Closes eyes* a few seconds pass *squints eyes open*
"Yay! Mommy is still there!"
(Repeats 3-6 times)
"What is this gosh darn thing in my mouth?" *pulls out pacifier*
"Where the heck is my paci?!?!?" *Cries* (Mommy puts paci back in mouth)
"What is this in my mouth?" *Pulls out pacifier, investigates, starts to play with it; tries to put it in her mouth*
(Mommy puts paci back in mouth)
"Ah, I have my paci back, now I can go to sleep."
*Closes eyes, pretends to sleep*
(Mommy thinks she can escape but as soon as she moves its)
*Eyes pop open!* "Mommy where are you going?"
(repeat the above until she is actually fully asleep...
