It's been a while..


since I last posted. Angela's sleep habits, or lack thereof have been all consuming the past few weeks. We had a conversation with a sleep consultant over the phone, changed some things around and for a week Angela was taking better naps and was easier to get to bed. Then last week, it all became undone somehow, I think she caught on to our game. And then, last night, she turned it all around again - went to bed at 8:00, woke up at 2:00, and then slept till quarter of seven. John got her down for a nap at 9:15ish and she's been asleep for over two hours now. This is only one night/day so I'm not putting too much stock in this being a new habit - but it's atleast a nice break.


In other news Angela can now:

  • Wave and say "bye-bye" - but usually only does this after the person has left and cannot see or hear her.

  • Stack toys and put them away (small victories)

  • Throws a ball (kind of)

  • Gives High-Fives

  • Gives non-biting kisses with the smooch sound (to grandma, once)

  • Pretty much climb off the couch on her own.

  • Imitate words that we say to her - birdie, diaper, doggie - not very well, but the basic sound is there.

  • Roar like a lion.

  • Climb a full flight of stairs, thanks to daddy encouraging her to do this as he stood behind her.

  • She also tried to brush her hair last night, which was pretty cute.
She also likes to reach and scream for things/babies etc that she can't have. This is less cute.
