Sigh.

Marc has just taken Cerys out for a little while (thank you honey!) and Bailey is actually sleeping (read below) and I'm eating a Pepperidge Farm Milano cookie, imported from the States! I have a house full of chores to do, but my first thought was to sit down, enjoy my cookie and do some blogging. Sigh. (There's nothing chocolate can't fix, right Adele?) :)

It's been an interesting few days. Bailey, our 11 month old (yesterday!) has decided she is not really into naps these days. She also decided to go on a nursing strike two days ago. So that leaves her really grumpy and me really tired (ok, grumpy too). I can't quite figure Bailey out. She suddenly seems like a different child to me. Now that she is crawling, she is into everything!!! And I do mean everything! I'm starting to think Cerys was not a normal baby- she was calm, never into much, she took her naps (mostly) and just seemed very content to play on the floor with toys. Is it normal for the second child to be so different?!? :) She is fast at lightning too. She has refused her morning and afternoon nap the last couple of days and so she is sooo tired by afternoon that all she does is cry. And that makes me want to cry. Cerys told me yesterday, "Mommy, Baiwey needs a sleep!"

We all went to Tesco the other day, and Cerys and Bailey sat next to each other in the trolley. They have trolley's here that have a child's seat and a built in infant seat next to it. It's nice, if you have your two children with you at the store. But it's not so nice because every time Cerys looked away, Bailey would reach over and yank on her hair. Then she would put both of her feet in the air and swing one over and kick Cerys. Poor Cerys, she was so calm about it all and just kept saying politely, "Baiwey, stop." And then of course Bailey would just let a loud scream and start kicking. We got our shopping done fast and got outta there!

Sorry this post is so random. Just hoping this "phase" will pass soon (oh, please let it be just a phase!) so we can get back to normal around here.
