Bad Blogger!

I have been a bad blogger lately! I need to be better...will I be? probably not, but I can try!

• This year is supposed to be a really bad...flu (H1N1) season...so I decided to try and nurse Jillian all the way thru it. I am really glad I have nursed this long! I know its not for everyone and I respect that. Some women love it, some women hate it! Well...this all said....Jillian has 8 teeth! Sometimes I wonder what I am thinking...lol Actually it is pretty good so far...she usually only bites me when she is falling asleep.
• Like I said before Jillian has 8 teeth (4 upper 4 lower). She has been a wonderful baby during this. I am quite impressed. Yes she gets whiny, yes she gets fussy and sometimes she can be downright pissy, but for the most part she is happy! I am truly blessed.
• Of course as a (New) Mother I have to broadcast her achievements! What kind of Mother would I be if I didn't?! She has been sitting up for a long time and she tried crawling she preferred backwards tho....really she would walk rather instead. She is standing while holding on to things...she pulls her self up to stand and she also stands for a few seconds without anything. OH...the joys of when she starts walking! I am scared! LOL She drinks from a sippy cup and eats a ton including:cheerios, teething cookies, plums, peaches, carrots, zucchini, chicken, apples...squash, sweet potato and avocado were not her favorites. We are trying new things all them time. I think she will have enough teeth by next month to eat steak! LOL She claps (in a funny way) and loves to dance( just like her Dad and Brother) She has flown to Phoenix and to Portland and is a very good traveler (I am very happy about this!) Hopefully she stays like this. We also drove to Tahoe with her and the kids in the back seat. She did just fine. She plays peek-a-boo and talks a lot....wonder where she gets that from?! A little while back Grandma was talking to her...saying....MAMAMAMA Jillian crinkled up her nose and said DADADADA. She is also developing a ton of funny facial expressions! I just love watching her. She makes me giggle. I am sure there are a ton more things she does, but I can't remember everything. If you have had a child...you understand. Your child takes your memory with em!
