She learned to sit from a laying down position. And now she can't get enough of it. She wants to sit when she is being changed, when she is "trying" to nap, when she is being rocked. She is very excited that she can do this new thing. Every morning when she wake up she is sitting at the very end of her crib playing with her Soothe and Glow Seahorse. She learned to turn it on herself this morning.
And if she is not sitting and playing in the morning…she is STANDING and screaming! Yep, she stands. She still doesn't crawl, more like slug wiggles across the room, but she stands like a pro. And she tries to stand on anything she can pull herself up with. It's so crazy that she went from being a little immobile lump to a sitting/standing/wiggling little person.
In other news, Holly and Dwight had their wedding on Saturday. Kevin started baby-duty on Friday because I had bridesmaid-ly duties that I needed to attend to. We made all the bouquets and they turned out fabulous. I didn't help as much as I was planning to, but Sonia was stellar in getting things done. Everything looked beautiful and it was all DIY.
On the morning of the wedding I arrived at the reception hall completely ready at 1230pm. Aria had a snack before I left and Kevin planned to bring her back at 230pm (the ceremony started at 3pm). Since I arrived early and the girls were still beautifying, I helped finish makeup hair and eyelashes. I've become quite good at applying the false eye lashes. I feel bad that Gabby tried to put some one before I left, but was having a disastrous time and I didn't have time to help her. Sonia was the other eyelash pro. Though she was trying so hard to be perfect for Holly's that she ended up having to step back and Holy wiped her eye makeup off and re did it and then I applied them.
Gabby brought Aria in at 230ish and I fed her in the bathroom (too many people in the bridal party suite). The girls all loved Aria and we were taking pictured of her holding a rose. I kept trying to get her to smell is and she kept opening her mouth for a lick. Unfortunately while we were taking the photo shoot I guess she got a petal off and ate it all stealth like. Right before it was my turn to walk down the aisle with my bridesmaid partner, my mom goes running out saying that Aria was choking!! She got the petal out of her throat, but it threw me for a loop and I misstepped my almost only part of the ceremony. Oh well, I'm not the most important part of the wedding ;)
Kevin has today off and we are going on a date to Los Altos Grill. I'm excited! We had not been on a proper date in ages. Literally. I think we skipped out to a movie like a month ago, but before that…I don't even remember.
I'm excited for this weekend as well. We have St. Paddy's day on Saturday and our triple date with Josh, Emily and Carlo on Sunday. I hope it's sunny out so we can enjoy the courtyard.
Lastly, sleep update. Aria still is the worst sleeper, up every 3 hours and sometimes more. Will it ever end?
Until next time, xo Rosie
