Back to Normal

After a lot of craziness I think we are finally back to normal. Abby slept until 7 am this morning had her bottle and was back to sleep by 7:40 am. And... it is 10 am and she is still asleep. I love normal ~ especially the part of it that allows me to sleep in a little and get a shower before I have a baby to start playing with, feeding, and changing. It's my own little luxury.

After all this terrible hot weather we are finally back into more reasonable temperatures today. I am so glad it is going to be cool ~ Abby behaves much better when it is cool and so does her best friend Maize.

We are going to start a new food this afternoon. I am still debating - it is either going to be banana baby food or white grape juice. Hmm... too bad Abby can't just tell me which she'd rather try. Either way she is going to be getting a new fruit for 3 days then a new veggie for the next three, with her old favorites mixed into the feeding schedule of course. We've given up on peaches - she won't even do two bites. I tried to explain to her that they are practically the favorite fruit of many of her relatives on my side of the family, but she will not eat them. I can already tell she is going to be a very strong willed child... and I probably deserve it.
