Well, our beautiful sleeping booby fed baby is no longer sleeping so well. She's decided that at approximately 3.30am each morning, to hold an impromptu concert. We're all invited to hear her croon, ooh, aah, squeal with delight, and try out every sound and syllable combination she can. Her concerts rival Pink for stamina....at least 2 hours each time. I've tried giving her some boob juice at concert interval, but she continues to TALK WITH HER MOUTH FULL!!!!!! *sigh* Although it's crazy to be up at that time, we just can't keep but thinking how adorable it really is. Cue the over-enthusiastic Mum who thinks she will be the next Kelly Clarkson or similar.
Also, our little girl is teething. I have been thinking it was just teeth moving in her gums, but, she's definitely teething. Low fever, general irritability, fussing over one boob in one position (gums rubbing, I think), drooooooooling, droooooooling and droooooling some more, rubbing of mouth/lips etc up to ear, wanting to suck, wanting her dummy (which she doesn't normally have), and the biggest give away: red, inflammed gums where the first teeth are going to come. *sigh* poor little thing. She will be 15 weeks on Tuesday, and as my Mum keeps reminding me, I had my first two teeth at 4 months.Please, please let them poke through relatively quickly, as I think she is in a lot of discomfort.
Went shopping with my sister yesterday. Bought way too much for Darcey. Found this fantastic brand, called The Zipper Tree, which is based in Melbourne. This woman does reversible pinafores, a light denim on one size, and on the other uses beautiful japanese type print material. On each side is a bird, made of the other type of fabric. The pinafore has one button on one of the shoulders, so you can easily flip it one way or the other. Couldn't resist. Bought one for Darcey (size 2/3!!!!), plus the most beautiful box pleat, super thick and soft corduroy skirt, with fancy button on the side, which is size 1. I'm so excited. This was really the first shopping expedition, that I've actually bought things for her, for the pleasure of it. Not just having to buy her singlets or practical warmth etc. We bought from The Zipper Tree, from Unearthly Delights, Myer, David Jones, Pumpkin Patch (they have the cutest boy things at the moment, not so for girls). Plus, finally found some tights (thank god for Red Robin) that hopefully will fit for her baptism in 6 weeks. They are soooo cute, ivory colour with ruffles on the bum.
Really needed to get out with my sister yesterday. Have been quite down in the dumps, and retail therapy does help a lot. That and Chocolate
Anyway, got to go, my DH was going to put Darcey to bed, and me to wash-up, got to keep up my end of the bargain.
