Long Day...

Overall, Natalie was good all day, but she had some moments. Normally, she takes 2 naps and 1 of her naps is typically 1.5 to 2 hours, but today she would only take 1 nap that was 45 minutes long.

At lunch, tried feeding her pears baby food, but she ate a little then just spit at me every time I tried to get her to eat more. At dinner, tried feeding her a new baby food that was peas and spinach (which she usually likes) and the only way she would eat it without spitting green everywhere was if she ate some of my shredded chicken enchilada that I made for dinner. I'm starting to think she is not enjoying non-textured baby foods anymore.

She ran some errands with me and was good the entire time, but did not sleep in the car. When we got home, I put her in her crib hoping she would play herself to sleep like she usually does, but no, not today. Instead, when I went in to check on her I found a mess!  Her favorite thing lately is to take off her pants and throw them over the crib, which she had done. However, she had pooped and it had gotten out of her diaper and all over her sheet, blankets, and bumper. Talk about a mess! Guess it was time to wash everything. She didn't seem to mind it though because she was just playing the entire time and "talking" to herself.

Tonight, after dinner, Natalie took her first "stumbly" step(s). She was walking along the coffee table, then let go and took a step or 2 before stumbling onto the blanket on the floor. We tried to get her to do it again, but I think she is getting closer! I don't know that I'm really ready for her to be walking yet!

2 more days and we find out if Natalie will have a baby sister or a baby brother...hopefully Baby #2 cooperates!
