Sleep loving baby by Dunja Knezevic

I thank my lucky stars for having a sleep-loving baby!  Not only does she have two good long naps during the day, she’s been sleeping eleven hour nights since she was three months. The four month sleep regression did knock me of my feet for a few days but all is back to normal now.

Just started solids and there is nothing cuter in the world than her little expression when she tries a new flavor. Her preference is rice pudding but I change it up every now and again to keep her on her tiny toes.

I may also have mentioned in a previous post that my husband and I tried for years to get pregnant, and since I suffer from arthritis, and had to keep of my meds whilst we were trying, I saw an acupuncturist once a week to keep me mobile.  A wonderful wonderful lady who was intent on getting me pregnant. I stopped seeing her a few months before I got pregnant, and decided to not tell her about the great news, but to surprise her with a baby! Well I did just that yesterday and it was one of the most beautiful moments of my life. I met her in a caffee and hid Ari in her car seat under the table, as an extra surprise. Seeing her excitement made me think back to when I first laid eyes on Ari myself, the shock and wonderment taking over.

Babies do truly rule, just the best things since sliced bread!
