Well, to my loyal readers, I think that list includes only me. Regardless, the responsibilities of a new parent never end. I try to balance my life to have a little bit of time for everything I want to do, if that were the case, I would not sleep. So as a result, daily turns into sometimes yearly. Someday soon, I will post some more photographs.
Since my last post, Mackenzie has five words, mama, dada, nana, papa, and bubba (bottle). The problem is, she has had these same words for 3 months now. Maybe she will need to go to a special school after all. Regardless, last week was a momentus week at Westminster Ave. Mackenzie cut her first tooth. Mackenzie has now decided to pull her self up to a standing position on anything she can. Also, she now has realized, she can crawl. Only far enough to get whatever is in front of her. After that, she gives up. I guess once she understands the concept of being in the other room, vs disappearing act, then she may stop getting frustrated and continue to crawl. In the meantime, I have another week before I need to install the baby gate. Last, but most importantly not least, until I screwed it up last night, we were blessed with 3 consecutive sleeps through the night. Good sleep makes a world of difference. I have been more fortunate then Danielle in this aspect. Thanks again honey. However, once your spouse starts getting good sleep, voila, life is good again. So, now that I am back at work and Danielle is in charge again, 2 good things will come out of this. Mackenzie's routine will be more regimented and hopefully more sleeps through the night, and secondly, at least it won't be my fault if she doesn't.
P.S. It looks like our weight loss program is about to start. A walking and crawling child will enhance our mobility, and activity level, for the next few years. Might be time to adjust her bedtime 1 hour earlier.
