I took her into the nursery because I needed to keep an eye on her while picking out something for her to wear. I set her on the floor in front of the mirror (back far enough so as not to reach it though) with some toys.

She played while I discovered that she's outgrown almost all of the clothes we have for her. I didn't even see that coming because she has so many bags of clothes. They're mostly up to 6 months and she's now in 12 to 18 months in most clothes (she's 10 months old).

I found an ugly colored outfit that looked very comfortable, so comfortable in fact that I would wear it if it was in my size (ugly or not). Most of the pants she's had on up to this point have been a little snug in the waist, more so when she sits. I know how uncomfortable that can get so when I came across a pair of super soft, stretchy pants that looked like they would fit her AND matched the shirt, I knew I'd hit pay dirt. Unfortunately they're a little long in the leg for her so I rolled them up. I didn't want her to trip on her pants hem while trying to walk.

I tidied up her closet a bit then we made our way into the front room again. I saw that she hadn't had much of her juice so I wanted to offer it to her one last time for a last drink before I put it away. She tried to drink from it but the air flow wasn't working and it was creating reverse suction that prevented her from getting anything. I transferred it to one of her bottles and she drank just fine before drifting off to sleep in her blankets and teddy bears.

I wonder how late he was up. It's almost 11am and I think he's still sleeping. With them both sleeping I have time to enjoy another cup of coffee and the peace and quiet.

Once she wakes again I'll spend the rest of the day runnin after her, back and forth, fetching this and that, putting this and that up, offering you name it, etc. I'll end up feeling hot and tired and prolly frustrated. But ya know what, I still feel like the luckiest woman in the world. It is worth it. It really is. And I wouldn't change a thing.
