Wow, a toy baby!
Funny how everyone's been referring to Layla as the new toy, but it's kind of true in some cute way. The Mad Vargases passed her around and her eyes shift from person to person, wondering who the hell's carrying her now and where her Mommy and Pappy are. I always have to stay close at first, though, so she can still smell me nearby.
It was nice to have my side of the family over for merienda last Sunday. I told them that we were closed to visitors for two weeks so that we could establish the baby's schedule, when she's awake, when she's asleep, so that we'll know when it's the best time for visitors to come see her. I'm really strict about her sleeping habits because hello, I'm the one who wakes up in the middle of the night to feed her. We're lucky that she only wakes up once or twice at night, so I'd like her body clock to stay that way.
It's also cool that she sleeps most of the night. Her new pedia Dra. Paulino says that we're lucky to have such a good girl sleeping in our room. :)
I only allowed my family to play with her until 4pm. She was asleep on her Ninang Carla by 3:30 anyway, so they had enough time with her before I put her in the crib for a more comfortable nap. Yeah, all my rules piss them off, but they were happy to spend the hour with her anyway. They also watched me breasfeed, which I must say is really weird. I had an apron on, something my Tita Nieves made for me so I can breastfeed in front of people, but when Aba keeps lifting it because she's so intrigued, it kind of defeats the purpose. :p
We were all talking about how long Layla had become over the weeks...I can't believe she's almost a month old. So I've been stuck at home taking care of her for almost a month? Wild. Jay jokes all the time that I don't miss him anymore because I'm busy with Layla, my toy, my pet...my baby. Whee! Sometimes he asks if I still feed our fighting fish, Pyro. Don't worry, Love, the Pyro isn't a neglected fishy.
We're buying Layla a stroller soon so that we can take her around and she'll have a place to sleep or just rest when we're somewhere else. It's about time she visited the Vargas house, too. The question is...will my family be able to keep up with her? Say if I leave her there for a few hours? Crying? Wee-poo-ing? Demanding attention for, I dunno, 5 hours straight? Hmmm, we'll see. But I'm sure they won't mind. Hehe. She is, after all, their new toy. :)
