I don’t wanna grow up… April 27, 2004
I’m a Toys R Us kid….
Magdalena has taken interest in toys lately. It is quite fun and cute. Here is a picture of her playing.
Yet Another Meme
Since I’m having a hard time writing, I’ll keep up with this meme thing and maybe you’ll learn something about me!
Tuesday Twosome
Sleep:
1. Side of the bed: Left or Right? Right
2. Sleep with or without covers? I sleep with covers but usually have one leg thrown over the covers.
3. Sleep with or without night light? No night light, but we did have one in the hallway on the way to bathroom while I was pregnant.
4. Deep or light sleeper? Pretty deep, though I generally know where Magdalena and Erich are in the bed at all times to keep from people squishing people and such. It must be my new sixth sense.
5. More annoying to be awoken by: alarm or phone call? The alarm is pretty annoying, as it tends to wake up Magdalena too. We have a cell phone only so the phone doesn’t ring all over the house. When I worked in nursing homes, I would always be getting a phone call at 4 or 5 in the morning, asking me to come in and cover a shift. Those phone calls were incredibly annoying.
Participation Positives April 26, 2004

4. Spending time with friends this past weekend.
5. Pretty flowers in the yard.
6. Clean diapers.
7. Laundry started.
8. Dishes clean.
9. Pot roast in the crockpot.
10. Iron Chef America: Battle of the Masters on TV all weekend.

Failure (part 2) April 19, 2004
I’ve somewhat corrected the situation, though the failure sucks. I’ve disappointed Erich and that hurts immensely. I wish I could crawl into a hole somewhere. There is no excuse for my screw-up.
Failure
I screwed up on a bill related thing. Erich left mad at me. I’m sitting here crying and now I hear the baby crying. What a great way to start the day.
12 weeks 1 day April 15, 2004
Well, it has been 12 weeks and 1 day since Magdalena Eusevia was born. Wow, time flies and what a journey it’s been. This little girl is still wearing 0-3 month clothing. And she still has a bit of room! I have put 1 or 2 3-6 month outfits on her and they are still super big. Oh well. Just today she learned to roll from her stomach to her back. Yeehaw, that made me happy. She is successfully finding her fingers to suck on and can successfully latch herself on to the breast with minimal help. She has been holding her head up with more and more ease and now tries to actually sit up. This girl wants to move! She talks to us now for what seems like hours. She coos and gurgles and always wakes up with a smile. She naps like a champ which Mommy loves. She recognizes both Mommy and Daddy and doesn’t tolerate other people that long. When putting pressure on her feet, she’ll hold her entire body up with just our hands to keep her from falling over. She is 100% breastfed and cloth diapered. And she is simply amazing.
