    Cali and I had a rough morning. Cali needed a lot of attention and wouldn’t let me get anything done. I try to fold laundry and she shimmies inbetween me and the clothes and hangs on my arms. I try to bake and she tugs on my legs so I can’t move. Eventually it got to the point that she wasn’t even content with me holding her – I had to be standing and walking around with her! I tried putting her down for a morning nap – (she is deciding if she needs one nap a day or two). She screamed in her crib for 40 minutes. I went and got her at 11:15 and put her in her booster seat at the table. She then ate a hot dog and a banana and drank her bottle. She ate a lot of food and then she was ready to play!! She disappeared and played toys and wandered around the house and I was able to get everything done!! Was she really just hungry that whole time?? What baby is starving at 10am?Apparently mine was. Tomorrow I will give her a bigger breakfast and see if we have a better morning. She willingly went down for a nap at 1:30 but – 40 minutes later I am hearing her awake – – ahhh – what to do. A one year old needs more than a 1 hour nap a day to be functional.

    On a side note – we played outside yesterday!! The snow is sticking around but the sun was actually out and Benji was having fun Shattering the snow ice. Cali played outside for a bit but I made her come in and watch from the window…

    decemberThis morning I built a fort for the kids – they are loving it…

    IMG_1053and the more annoying part of the Cali problem is that I have been trying to get her eating schedule figured out with the switch to real milk, trying to get the constipation and stomach aches under control. So today I was making sure not to give her her bottle too soon and I ended up with a hungry grouchy baby. Do I go get her out of bed or do I let her cry herself back to sleep?

    1. Hey, your forts look almost as good as mine! I’m the master fort builder at our house too. Scott’s forts don’t even compare. hahaha
