Oh, what a day...

You know, sometimes taking care of a baby just wears you out!

Last night Jillian had a very tough night (I suspect teething ) and woke up twice. Both times that she woke up it was pretty difficult to soothe her, which is very uncharacteristic for her... Once I sat with her for a little bit, she calmed down and even tried to convince me to play, "This little piggy..." I couldn't help but laugh a little- sorry Jillian, but I'm not counting your toes at 2:00 in the morning!!!

And then, after all that, she woke up again at 5:30am. Needless to say, I'm exhausted this evening.

The difficulty of the day continued, and despite a 3 1/2 hour nap in the morning she was just a bit cranky all day so we went to the park to kill some time in the afternoon. Now tell me, how could I possibly be frustrated with her when she makes faces like this:


Goodness I love this baby!

Oh, I'm sorry Nancy! But yes, Jillian does look absolutely precious in these pictures! My mom is in town and saw me looking at some of my friends blogs and was commenting on how ADORABLE Jillian is :)
