This week has been a rough one. Lily still won't nap during the day or even fall asleep at night sometimes unless I walk her around in the Ergo carrier. Side note: thank God for that carrier, I don't know what I'd do without it! I even nursed her in it today to get her to fall asleep! She and has also been waking up MULTIPLE times per night for extended periods of time and now, when I lay her down, she knows that I'm leaving the room and REALLY doesn't want me to, so she wakes right back up and the whole process starts all over again.
I feel terrible for Wade because the majority of my time is being taken up either walking with Lily, laying her down (or trying to), or carrying her around because she's too fussy to put down. So, every chance I get to be alone with him, I try to make the most of it. The other day, we made caramel apples. At first he didn't want to, he just wanted to eat the candies- apparently Nene has given them to him before, so he associates them with her :) But, once I told him he could eat one after we opened all the wrappers, he set right to work. He nearly opened them all himself- now that's dedication!

I put Lily in the doorway bouncer for the first time tonight so I could take a shower and she could still see me. She was so proud of herself, she loves acquiring new skills and gets this big grin whenever she does something new :)
