Two Teeth Already!

Bella had an appointment at the doctor this week (shots included - uuugghh!) and she just cut her two bottom teeth! I can't believe she got them so early. Now, I thought we got away unscathed because honestly, other than her erratic sleeping pattern last week she was fine. Hmmm...perhaps I spoke too soon ;) She was MISERABLE today and cried SO much. I don't know if it is a side effect from the shot and she is cranky from that or if it's her teeth. I thought it only hurt them while the teeth were still cutting through, but not once they came up. I hope that her mood changes soon...it was an awful day.

Getting So Big!

My baby girl is getting SO big so fast! She will be five months old on the 24th and I just can't believe how fast it is going. She is rolling over both ways and it seems like she learns something new every day.

Her sleep schedule is not consistent yet. Some nights she only wakes up once or twice and easily falls back asleep. Other nights she wakes up four times and fusses every time I put her down. So many people tell me to let her cry it out, but I can't...I truly can't do it.

I am really enjoying being home with her. I am not looking forward to leaving her next year when I go back to work. With all the back to school hoopla this year I couldn't help thinking about next year and feeling sad. I don't want to miss anything and I am not looking forward to being away from her all day :( For now I am just trying not to think about it and enjoy every moment.
