Hello everyone 
, I tried looking if there was one made, but I couldnt find any. How are you mamas? I havent been on here much. Sophia has been way more needy than ever, she mostly wants to nap/sleep while nursing and if Im not there she'll wake up anywhere from every 15 min to every hour. It's been getting better these past two days.
She's been eating really well, the girl LOVES food. I cant say there's something that I've given her that she doesnt like and she has finally started drinking water from her sippy cup. I think part of it is my fault, because I almost never offer it, but now she always wants it. She stands on her own for a little bit and walks around the table grabbing on to it. Last night was hilarious, she was sleeping and put herself horizontally with her feet kicked up on DP's back haha, I wanted to take a picture but was scared of waking them.
Her new thing is to wave on her way to get things she's not supposed to, like dvds, wires, books. She'll turn, smile, wave and go on her merry way like saying "it's ok, there's nothing to see here, go back to what you were doing". Her wave is so cute too, it's like she's cleaning a window haha
She fell from the bed today and I felt really sad. She usually cries the second she opens her eyes and Im not there, but this time she didnt. I was downstairs cleaning the bathroom and just heard a bump, silence and then the loud scream. I felt so bad, I have a "safety net" made of blankets around the bed, but I think she was mostly scared, calmed down as soon as I picked her up.
Dss has started being really mean to her. Like when we're having breakfast he says things like "Put Sophia on the floor I dont want to look at her". I've been kinda ignoring it at first, then asking him why he says that and how he would feel if I said that to him or also saying but "Sophia LOVES you and she thinks you're the coolest person in the whole world and she only wants to look at you". Then on Sunday when he was ready to come home, he came to the kitchen just to tell me that he was going home "so he'd never have to see Sophia's face again". I said that made me sad and he said "ugh! Im kidding!"..
Oh and I might start working sooner than I thought. DP's mom asked me if I'd worked there, someone is about to quit/get fired and DP said to her when she first asked "Over my dead body Ill expose her to the insanity that is this place" haha and I agree, but then again. We REALLY need the money, we dont have a (working) car and I can walk there, is literally 5 minutes from here. So on the meantime that's what we'll have to do. The only thing is that the only daycare that is in walking distance is an evangelical Lutheran one, so I dont know. Im gonna call tomorrow and see if I can check it out. The people from the church always come here and bring me reading material and they're actually very nice. I have nothing against religion, is just that I dont subscribe to any and I do believe in God or like DP and I like to call it, "the thing". We both have a very unique shared view on reality and spirituality, but is really not a negative thing. I guess once I go there and see how they are and what they do I'll have a more clear idea if it's the right place. The bad thing is that I dont know if Sophia is ready to go to a daycare. She still falls asleep in my arms and then I nurse her when I transfer her to the bed. She's very high needs, mommy, mommy, mommy, but the times she has been with DP she has been fine , even napped for short times. I think Im also not ready for it and I dont know how to slowly transition.
What are everyone's plans for Valentine's day? I think I want to go out to dinner with DP and Sophia, Dss too if he's gonna be here. Make it more of a family thing. We've actually never done anything on V-day before, so it'd be nice to celebrate somehow.
And does anyone feels like your babies are almost not babies anymore? I got super sad the other day because I was watching Sophia play with dss toy. She was playing with a toy drum and a piano and she looked like this little girl all independent, she's also gotten a "I wanna do it by myself" attitude. You cannot hand her food, she needs to grab it, she used to let me brush her teeth, now she "does" it herself and she's also become kinda mischievous.
Sorry for the long rant, havent been here in a million. Love for everyone. I've missed you mamas.

I joke with my DH that I would be the one to get a baby who wants to eat "real" food as soon and as quickly as he can--me, the one who is willing and eager to offer extended breastfeeding! 
. Hopefully she will sleep now, but I will probably be back later tonight 
Gotta love them.
I suggested that maybe we could wait until I was sure I wouldn't have to wash diapers for two babies at once!!!!
