Monday, 2 December 2013: Thirty Five Weeks Old.

Baby Ayla is like the Energizer Bunny; she just keeps going and going!

Her current routine is to sleep for 12 hours at night (waking up once for a feed), stay up for 1.5 – 2 hours in the morning then nap for another two.

But from then on its pretty much non-stop action until bedtime.

Sometimes I can feel in Ayla’s muscles that she just wants to get up run… She has so much energy and so much curiosity that I think she’ll be one of those kids who needs an “OFF” button.

Boredom seems to creep in quickly for Ayla and she is constantly on the go; always looking for new activities and new things to learn. It’s FULL ON.

If we’re at home and having a very average day Ayla might go down for an afternoon nap, but on days like today when Ayla’s Uncle Buck came to stay, nap time was a 30 minute rest and bedtime was late!

It was just too exciting for her, to have someone new in the house, and Ayla didn’t want to miss a second.

It’s cute and exciting and it makes me think I have a pretty smart and special kid, but I can only imagine what life will be like when Ayla CAN run… I think maybe we should start her at meditation classes now.
