Agoraphobia Rocks!

Today we had our first public melt down at Baby Gap. Sofia began getting fussy just when i had hit the clearance jack pot. I calmly asked the sales clerk for a dressing room so I could feed my darling child. By the time we had our dressing room we were in full hysterics. I tried feeding her with every known source i had available. I tried diapering, passifyer....it looked like the diaper bag had exploded all over the dressing room. Nothing helped. After about 5 minutes I decided they probably did not want to hear it anymore so I threw my goodies on the counter and told her i would be back. We then continued to flip out all through the mall (thank god for outdoor malls) then continued into JC Penny where I desperatly tried to find a bathroom with hot water so I could heat up the bottle (maybe it was too cold? hell I dont know!). No such luck. So after about 30 minutes of complete chaos, I actually went back to Gap, paid for my crap and left the mall.

For good I think.

By the time we got to the car she was completely passed out. Apparently completely losing it is exhausting. Sofia slept the entire rest of the day. Well, she woke up to eat....then went back to bed.....with June.

That is the last time I ever leave the house.

The making of a surfer girl

Hey, you have to start somwhere! and it starts with knowledge....although we think she just likes the pretty pictures like her dad.

The Feline factor

As you all know, the kitties (Henry and June) run this family so we thought we would give them a shout out. They LOVE Fia. Especially June. she is way maternal and freaks whenever the baby cries. If she can, she will lick Fia's head while she is upset. It is really sweet. June also watches Fia when we are doing stuff around the house and she is sleeping. June will sit right next to wherever she is and just watch her. As you have seen, bath time is also a favorite of everyone as is nap time. All are family affairs. We are also not really sure who the play mat actually belongs to. Call it the first show of 'sibling rivalry'.

Furry bath-time supervisors

Bath-time is an all family event. We even get some furry supervisors that do not seem to trust our parenting or life guarding skills. We don’t think that they would actually be willing to get wet if Fia needed help, but they always watch our every move during bath time just in case. Or maybe they are worried that they will be next and want to find out what she did to receive this cruel punishment!

The last picture with the scowl is an indicator of how much Fia dislikes bath time but it is slowly growing on her. Mom usually gets in the tub with her and she likes that much more than the solo bath.
