Jinxed

Well, I figured I wouldn't get that great of sleep last night. Dahlia slept for most of the afternoon and I had to sort of wake her up to eat dinner. She & I read part of THE PILLARS OF THE EARTH around 9 or so and she fell asleep in my arms. I put her down and there were no problems. I figured she might be up again around 10:30 to eat and sure enough! Just as I was falling asleep she was waking up. She also got up to eat at about 3:30 which was an hour shy of what I was hoping for. Luckily she went back down at 4:30 for another couple of hours which was good. I knew blogging about her recent decent sleep habits would bite me in the ass. Ah well.

I had something else to say today but I'll be damned if I can remember it. Hmph.

I'm reading The Pillars of the Earth right now too! I'm really enjoying it. How about you?

Sorry last night was a rough night again. Hopefully she'll get back on track tonight.

I'm with you today. Claire pulled a Dahlia last night so I am feeling the pain of having less than 4 hours of total sleep today. (Longest stretch of sleep for Ms. C was 2 hours last night). Urgh.

I told her last night it's a darn good thing she is so darn cute and that mommy can do a presentation on the fly, cuz who knows what would have happened when she popped back awake at 3:30am this morning.......

She'll be in a routine before you know it! In the meantime, I am sending you lots of hugs and good thoughts.

Btw -- I LOVED "The Glass Castle." Thank you again!

I figured it out....

and IT'S A GIRL!! I'll do a proper introduction later and the whole story and everything but in the meantime, we had a baby girl. 2:15pm on Friday afternoon (I posted at, what? 10;30am? You do the math!!). Her name is Dahlia Marie and she weighed in at a whopping 6lbs even. 19 1/4" long and so incredibly gorgeous (although, I might be a wee bit biased). The birth was the most amazing experience I've ever been through and my mind is still, well, blown, quite frankly. I am so tired though...time for a quick nap before we try to feed again.

Privacy, please!

Well, the time has come. After 6 1/2 years (!?) Naturally Optimistic will be going private at the start of the new year. If you are interested in still reading my INCREDIBLY exciting posts & commenting on my cute children, email me & I will put you on the invite list. Like I said - it won't happen for another couple weeks, but there ya go. Time to make a change. I'm kind of sad because I've met some cool people - randomly - by having this blog....but the phase of putting all my stuff out there for everyone to read is over. Thanks!
