Tease me, Tease me Tease me, Tease me baby Till I lose control

I should count myself lucky Morgan doesn't talk yet, otherwise she'd be swearing at me for pestering her and picking on her.

This is what happened yesterday evening:


I can't help but laugh every time it happens!  I do help her out, mind you, but at times I like to watch her and see if she manages by herself.  There are times when she is actually successful!

Today, the same thing happened, and this time, she actually grabbed it with her hand!  At first she grabbed it between  her middle finger and her ring finger, then when i gave it to her, she grabbed it with her whole hand and threw it on the floor.

I'm uber-pleased, to say the least!

Morgan has been rather quiet all day, slept quite a bit too, meaning I could get things done. I'm officially putting away her small bottles, as we have now upgraded to 160ml every feed - even though I'm mixing 4 scoops of milk to 150ml of water to reduce her spewing.  I'll go for the actual dosage of 5 scoops once her stomach accepts the fact she's drinking more.

On a side note, I'd like to wish a happy birthday to Paul - the mastermind behind "Malta's Amateur Youtubers, Bloggers, Vloggers and Artists". Here's a happy Morgan just for the occasion:

The Calm Before The Storm

I don't know if this happens to you guys as well - but, whenever I'm close to a deadline, instead of panicking, a strange calm overtakes me.   My mind gets split in two.  There will be one half urging me to get to work on whatever it is, screaming and running about, throwing a scene.  The other half will opt for a laid back attitude where procrastination is dominant.

At the moment,I've got a list of things that need to be done before the end of next week [for obvious reasons], however the only thing I feel like doing is sleep.  Knowing that this will be the last few moments of complete silence I will be getting for a while makes me appreciate it more and wanting to savour it.

Tomorrow I've got another prenatal class.  I must remember to let the midwife know that this may very well be my last one so that if there is any important info she needs to dish out, I'll be sure to obtain it.

Oh, and just in case you were wondering what the doll I was making is, here's the finished result:

Yep. It is a bunny rabbit.

 As silly as it may sound,  the idea that Creature will be popping out soon is strange. People around me, as well as myself, got used to the pregnancy. To think that there will be another major change happening puts you back to square one where you have to learn how to deal with it all. 

I'm quite looking forward to finding out whether Creature is a boy or a girl. It will be odd not calling him/her Creature after having used that nickname for so long!
