Jun. 2nd, 2006 11:46 amI think hope we've solved the separation anxiety problem with Natalie - by sending her over to Aunt Donna's house, where there are TONS of things to do.
Like, not sleep. She's taken to grabbing the first two fingers of one hand in the other and slamming that double fist on her bottle, her Pooh, and whatever is nearby, all to fend off sleep.
The dog and the cat really, REALLY want to play with the baby. They both keep sneaking over to look at her sleeping on the couch. Bernie thinks this is the coolest thing that has happened for a long time (we trained him to be "nice to the baby" - a doll - so he would know not to jump or lick) because this baby laughs and smiles and grabs his nose.
I wonder how much they'll like her if she sets to howling when she wakes up...which I hope will be at least 45 minutes from now...Mal's not coming until 2...I want Natalie to wake up happy instead of terrified, for once!
ETA: She cried for about 30 seconds, mainly because I was talking to Jay and couldn't pick her up right away. So we danced to the B52s and read The Very Clumsy Click Beetle and Mal came and now I'm free!
