Two teeth and counting

Greta finally got her 2nd tooth in!  Yeah!  Think it's quite possibly what was causing the fevers and crankiness this weekend.

Here's a pretty good picture of both of them!

My little bed hog

So Greta has been waking up at 2:00 am the past two nights and not really interested in sleeping. She'd really like milk... In between cries that is what she signs- pretty adamantly too.  

Usually after 40 minutes of rocking and trying to get her back to sleep, I bring her in bed with us. And then she takes over. Usually at some point she just sits on me. Then flops down on me. And I'm paranoid about rolling over on her so I give her even more room.

This was her this morning... Not sure where the other sock is - lol.

One smart cookie

So I've known it all along but today day care confirmed that Greta is smart! They said Greta was following two set instructions and I guess that's pretty impressive at her age. Kristi would ask her to get a block and she'd get it and then look at her like now what?! So Kristi asked her to stack them and she did! 

Proud mommy moment. 

2014 garden is in

and it's official... Greta's Garden is planted and oh my... it's bigger and better than ever.

Got to thank Kahle and Mary for coming over and rototilling the garden.

We all also went and bought plants for the garden. This years lineup includes - tomatoes, yellow, red and green peppers, jalapeños, banana and Hungarian peppers, peas, beans, radishes, beets, onions, broccoli, cauliflower, summer squash, zucchini, spaghetti squash, and sweet corn. Holly ice seems like a lot when I type it all it.

Here's my hope that it doesn't get grassed under like last year.

Shoes la la

Karle and Kahle got me the book Shoe La La for my 30th birthday (or at least I think that's when)... well it's now quite appropriate because Greta loves shoes! And she can even say shoe too.  Now every morning, she brings me 2 shoes to put on.  Sometimes they match and sometimes they don't.  But I happily put on whatever shoes she brings me.

Here's just a couple pictures of here trying on shoes.

Sick again!

If it's not me, then it's Greta. I just don't understand why she keeps getting sick?!? I thought breastfeed babies were supposed to be healthier. Ugh! We went to the doctor in Tuesday after she had a fever Sunday night and then at day care. Tuesday morning it was 103.9! Freaking out! Diagnosis... Ear infection and need a breathing treatment machine. Now a full 48 hours later and I don't think she's better at all. Possibly worse. So we are going back tomorrow.

I just want her to feel better for more than a couple weeks! 

Finally... A tooth!

It's finally happened. A tooth has poked through! 13 months and 1 day. I imagine they are going to start coming in at a crazy pace now. She seems to be handling it okay... Partly thanks to Motrin.
