Um, yeah
It has been a really, really long time since I posted anything here. I pretty much use Facebook to tell everyone what is going on. Perhaps once things settle down with our move to Sydney I can start a post every now and again!

Nursery and Sofia update.
Sofia started two half-days at nursery this week. Wednesday morning I dropped her off for 9:15-12:30. She did really well that day, shedding a few tears, but not inconsolable. She looked really sad and tired when I picked her up. She seemed really happy to see me. Today Tom and I dropped her off at 7:45. Tom went with us to have a look around the nursery and to meet the staff so they know who he is when he needs to drop/pick up Sofia. She made a handprint picture with blue paint and sparkles (and has it under her nails to prove it was her!).
Wednesday I had a cup of tea and did some reading and then felt a little lonely. I went next door and took their two kids, Hannah and Robert, to the duck pond and to the park. James and Corrina are in the process of moving and they had a one-year old and a 12-year old in their hair "helping". Today I managed to sweep and mop the kitchen floor, clean the laundry room, tidy up Sofia's room, shower, and do a couple of loads of laundry before picking her up again.
Before nursery Wednesday morning I brought Sofia over to get weighed. She is now 18 Pounds, 11.5 ounces. That is another increase of 1pound 6 ounces in five weeks and is now up around the 35th percentile. She can still wear most of her 6-9 month stuff but now wears 12 month pajamas because the arms are too short on the smaller ones. 9-12 month trousers and leggings don't fit yet because she is too skinny. Wish I had that problem !
What has Sofia been up to?
Pulling herself up on everything. She especially loves playing in the clothes basket. She still does her military crawling across the carpet. She will occasionally get herself back into a sitting position from lying down and will sometimes get on her hands and knees and sort of go backwards. She is getting pretty good at going up stairs, too. For the most part she is adjusted to time here again, but for the past three nights she has been getting up around 2:30-3am and crying and crying. I am also having a hard time getting her to go to sleep. Lots of tears most of the time. Could be her teeth? She has a tooth popping through the bottom now. It is taking its sweet time coming through, but it is there and it hurts when she wants to chew your finger. She is doing much more self-feeding. She loves shredded cheese, bits of chicken, baby biscotti, bananas, pretty much anything I give her.
I have a few new photos that I will put on Flickr. Right now.

Trying to stand on her own
Sofia has been really trying to pull herself up on to things in the past few days. She is often successful. Still no crawling, but so close!
