with a vengence! on sunday dark clouds rolled in, propelled by blasting winds. damn, it was like a typhoon around here! my laundry lines were knocked down. and gardening supplies are all washed up against the fence. the temperature has surely dropped. from lovely balmy weather last week to snow today. brrrr. needless to say, i haven't cleaned up the yard. haha. guess i better do that before the weekend or more people won't want to buy a house.
sasha is killing me. probably a growth spurt but she wants to nurse every hour all night long. yoshi has started sleeping in the living room. hiro sleeps through it, which is a good thing, but i'm just dying. and she won't eat rice cereal or apple sauce or even mashed bananas. so far the only thing she likes is baby senbei, and that's only because she can hold it. i am drained. and so tired. wish me luck to get through this.

Good luck! I am finally aware of how hard constant nursing really is.
At least you can nurse in a nice warm house. :) Silver lining?
aww Growth Spurts are always so hard!!! Can you offer it more during the day?!?!? Becca was never one to take nursing if she did not want it but some kids it works to offer it more...hugs!
Maybe her tummy is still unsettled a bit after the flu? Breastmilk was always the only thing that stayed down with DD#1 for the week or so following the flu. . . maybe Sophie just wants what feels best on her tummy right now and soon as her tummy feels better she'll be more interested in the mashed banana, etc.
if she likes holding senbei. . .how about dipping senbei in apple sauce, cereal, mashed banana? oh the mess! but if some goes in? How about yogurt? My kids loved it--edible finger paint!
growth spurts. my whole body shudders remembering!
yikes! oops. Sophie hasn't had the flu, has she! Must be a growth spurt. (^_^) Can you tell I am reading too many blogs recently? I'm confusing bloggers kids! blush. blush. awkwardly clears throat. . .
well, at least you know that the growth spurt will end eventually! till the next one anyway!
No way. Unbelievable. I promise to go drink a POT of coffee. I was horrified just now when I realized that first, I mistakenly gave your daughter the flu then I got her name WRONG. twice.
Please, please forgive me. And now I am off to clean the fish tank--something I can do without making many mistakes I hope. . . poor fish are probably nervous about it now though!
no worries! thanks for the comments!
she nurses all day, too. and i've tried solids but she won't have any of it! *sigh* this too shall pass
Oh, the growth spurts! Yikes. I hope it passes quickly...hang in there!
