Waiting for Emma to wake up..

Well, I am waiting Emma to wake up. Every few minutes or so I hear her thrash around. But then it is back to wee little snores. She is wearing her monkey pajamas, which are about as cute as anything.

Emma is growing and so am I. What a big learning curve. It's a good thing babies start out pretty simple. Even the simple needs, like eating, were tough to learn. But now she needs new things, like she wants to be outside every day, she wants to interact with people, and wants to look at things. Soon she will want to be using her hands, but not quite yet. So what I am having to learn this week is that she wants to spend time doing those things plus she still needs to nap, maybe more than before, and I have to help her transition between all the parts of her day. At the same time, she seems to be becoming more sensitive to noise, and we have a lot of that here. The dogs are of course a huge source of noise with the kennel right outside the bedroom window. Not so bad at night when they sleep, but Emma has naps all throughout the day and the dogs are often playing or alerting to things going on around them. Wee little Tartlet has got the corner on the market for astounding and random sounds.

New photos soon. I think I will point the cell phone posts to this blog, from the barkingbrook blog.
