big girl

so my big girl was fantastic today! she slept until noon after her nine a.m. feeding. mama hardly knew what to do! she actually managed to poach eggs for breakfast and was able to take the time to butter her toast just so. i checked on the little bucket who was asleep in a little pool of breast milk on my bed and she was still slumbering. so i decided to clean and tidy the house. i even managed to run the vacuum cleaner and swift the floors. and yet she slept on! so i even began to plan dinner. finally she stirred...only to wow me some more. while laying on her changing table for an extra long time as mom tried to maneuver the silly cloth diapers on the poor child, she actually started responding to her mobiles. she lay there smiling and laughing and having the time of her life looking up at her butterflies and cranes. how wonderful it is to watch her grow like this!
