Yesterday Kate and I were out and about for quite a long time in the afternoon and into the evening. We didn’t get home to eat dinner until 7, and by then Kate was hungry and cranky – though it was really nice to see her hungry again, after she barely ate anything last week. She ate some of my chicken, hard boiled egg, and some canned peaches, all of which are foods that she’d been shunning. (The chicken-refusal was a new development, but she has never been fond of hard boiled eggs or canned peaches.)<\/p>\n
It was a later evening and at 9:30 she was still running around shrieking with laughter. By that point Den and I were eying her warily, wanting to go to bed ourselves and wondering how the hell we were going to convince her it was bedtime. Finally at 10 I scooped her up and said, “It’s bedtime!” Den snorted, “Yeah, good luck with that. She isn’t going to sleep.” So off I went to her bedroom.<\/p>\n
I came out 5 minutes later doing a jiggy dance and said, “I have magic boobs!” She nursed into a trance, I put her in her crib and she rolled right over sleepily. Yet again the boobies save the day.<\/p>\n
Can you see why I’m scared about weaning her? They are so handy!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
