Current mood: sick
Wow Mia's last #30's week! In a couple of weeks she will be as old as she was in my tummy! haha This week was fun, though she was sick most of it.
She started off playing a new game with Mama. I would stand her up and let go and count outloud how long she could stay standing on her own. She would laugh and smile so big when we would do this together. She made it all the way to 12 seconds! Go Mia! However, since then she doesn't really want to play that game anymore, she rather jump or crawl away. Haha
She also got to meet the Easter Bunny this week too! Though she didn't want to smile for the camera, she got a huge kick out of the bunny himself. Everytime she looked at him or he looked at her she would laugh and smile real big. She got so comfortable with him she even started pulling his whiskers! haha She did better than we thought, but after seeing how she reacted to the Bunny we are now nervous about her meeting Santa again. She might pull off his beard!!!
She also did a couple of cute things this week as well. Daddy came down with Mia's cold and has been real sick all week. Hes been working from home most of the week so he hasn't shaved. Granted he was looking alittle scruffy we didn't think much of it but Mia did!!! Sesame street happened to be on the tv and this big orange scruffy looking puppet came on and right away she said "Da-da!" and started smiling and laughing at the puppet! It was really funny.. of course Daddy shaved soon after that haha.
She also started "rawr'ing" this week. She crawls around going "rawr..rawr..rawr!" in a real deep voice. Its really funny, I don't know why she started doing this but now its pretty much all she does!
She also got her first mole this week too! (I think its a mole) It just popped up out of no where and has been there all week. I've looked at it closely and its under the skin. Its tiny but noticable. Its right on her Right cheek and almost identical to the spot where mine is on my right cheek. I wonder if it is a mole, I thought those things come in later.. but who knows maybe shes taking after Mama.
She is also starting to climb on EVERYTHING! she even climbed into her papasan by herself. When she climbed into it, she climbed to the top and it looked like she was riding a boogie board haha. Then she tried to climb on the TV stand that was next to it! I had to run over there and get her before she fell. Now she thinks it a game, always trying to get into trouble because she loves to watch one of us run over to her to stop her haha.
Well this week has not been all fun and games though. She actually still has her cold that she caught last Wednesday. She started to get better but the one night I didn't bundle her as warm (it was a warm night) she started relapsing. Oh-no! Well now she is getting better. She is still congested in her sinus's and alittle in her chest but overall her nights have been getting better. We make sure to keep her room warm all night (either by the house heater or her portable room heater) and her cool mist humidifer is on periodically to keep moisture in the air so her nose won't dry out. Of course I am still rubbing baby vick on her chest and feet at night and it seems to help. Hopefully she will be over it soon. She did however give her little cold to her Daddy and he's been real sick all week. So I have been mothering him as well, cooking him homemade soup from scratch every day and big power breakfasts in the morning. It seems to be helping his cold but boy... mothering two sickies on the house is WORK! now that they are starting to get better I am starting to feel under the weather now! Oh-no! If I come down with a cold I don't know what will happen, I pretty much hold his house together and keep things in order, if I get sick choas will break out! haha We will see, I've been trying to get some rest and Adrian's been great about giving me a break to rest.
Well Mia isn't to happy in her octagon anymore I think its nap time. So I need to go. Overall this week has been interesting to say the least. I will write more tomorrow because its a big day for her, she turns 9 months old!!! WOW! Then I will write again on Sunday because its her first Easter! so I will get some rest now while I still can.... haha
