Happy 2012!

A new year has begun, and it seems like it will be a good one, albeit different than any other. Stella has turned our lives upside down. Before Stella, Mandy loved us and snuggled us so much we had to hide from her, now we have to seek Mandy out and snuggle up to her in order to fulfill our snuggle quota of the day. When Mandy feeds Stella in the afternoon, I snuggle up to Mandy. Peyton steals his snuggles during Stella’s early morning feedings.

Mandy has started to undress CT. I have enjoyed sleeping under his twinkling lights, and I’m sad to see Mandy take him down.

Tax season is upon us, and it doesn’t appear that Mandy will be joining Sam at the office like in years past. However, I can tell Sam is starting to feel a little stressed. This morning he woke up really really early and he didn’t go back to sleep. He eventually woke Mandy up when Stella stirred. He pulled Stella out of bed and changed her while Mandy got ready to feed her. Sam then got ready and left for work. After he left, Mandy went back to bed and slept until a more reasonable hour. I sure hope Sam gets some rest tonight, because he needs it.

Stella is napping which is a relief after yesterday. She screamed so long and loud yesterday that we eventually crawled out of hiding to try and help Mandy calm her down. Mandy says Stella might be teething, and as soon as Mandy started exploring that possibility Stella calmed down. However, Mandy was happy when Sam came home and he snuggled Stella. I can’t imagine what teething is, but it must be painful. Poor tiny person.

Well, Mandy is undressing CT some more, and I better go help.

  1. I wondered if that was going to happen soon. She really enjoyed it when I rubbed her gums and it appeared that there were little bumps in the gums.
