What a weekend...

Last night Aurora was up just about every hour, crying and drooling and chomping her gums together. I couldn't feel any teeth today, but it's pretty obvious she's working on them. At one point I filled a sippy cup with ice water, and she liked that, but it didn't help for long. Tonight I'm prepared with soothing drops and Tylenol.

The most amazing thing was that this morning she woke up happy! I was sure she'd be overtired and cranky. Nope. We had a full day of breakfast at Le Madeleine, coffee with friends at the Borders bookstore in the Domain, yoga with Jennifer and Larkin, and a little afternoon shopping.

I'm afraid this may have been our last postnatal yoga class. Aurora is a little too mobile, and she's not shy about crawling over to other babies and grabbing them. Last week she reached over and grabbed Larkin's MOUTH! Today she kept crawling across the room to Lyric, who's in our class at daycare, and Doris Ann, who's 9 months old and pretty content to stay in one place. Larkin and Lyric are a couple months younger than Aurora and are not even sitting up yet, so they can't exactly play with her (or defend themselves against her!).

Rora has a great time at yoga and we'll both miss it, but once the babies can crawl they sort of 'graduate' into the crawlers and toddlers class - which is only offered on weekday mornings. Oh well. Here are a couple pictures from today. Larkin was keeping her eye on Aurora!

Too bad there's not a toddlers' class on week ends. Aurora looks like she's having lots of fun at Yoga. She's raring and ready to go--anywhere.

Larkin and I will miss you and Aurora at our yoga class!

How is Tater adjusting to Aurora's crawling?
