Hot days baby chilling
The weather has been nice hot as hell for the past week or two. I don’t really know how long it’s been. All the days blend together. It’s a good thing that the ‘living with baby’ class I go to is on Mondays. Those are easy to remember they come right after the two days of Kurt staying home from work that other people call ‘weekends’. Anyway, the days have been nice hot as hell and the baby sleep schedule is completely screwed up by it. It’s too hot to sleep. When I can get her to nap she wakes up with sweaty wet hair and bedtime has been moved to somewhere between 8 and 10pm. On the upside that means I get to sleep in till about 8 – YAY!!
Yesterday we had a very late lunch, so we pretty much skipped dinner. Actually, we went to Baskin Robins for dinner. They have a great menu *grin*. I fed Sophia some chicken and sweet potato baby food before we left and she was still holding her baby spoon when we arrived at our ‘restaurant’, so she got her first taste(s) of ice cream. It made her shiver a bit, but she proved to us that she is a normal human by leaning in for more and more and more. She kept watching me eat and with every spoonful I took, she would open her mouth and lean in. I didn’t give her that much, maybe the equivalent of three baby-spoon spoonfuls.
Last night Kurt gave Sophia a cold bath. Not like ice water cold, but cold, you know, not warm. Every time he scooped water to pour over her, she shivered and then laughed. She loved it! My little water baby.

That’s a great picture. You can kind of see what she is going to look like as a little girl.

If that were a nom picture I think it would say “Ice-cream! nomomomomomomom”. Or maybe that’s just me.

Umm… I have a tiny confession. That wasn’t her first taste of Baskin Robbins.
One day after lunch, we stopped by because I desperately wanted some daiquiri ice. I only let her taste it (a couple of times), because that was back in the days when she didn’t trust anything that came on a spoon, and I didn’t want to give her too much sugar. I figured it was safe to give her because it doesn’t contain milk. She liked it.

I know what you mean. I am looking forward to cooler weather myself. The pic is adorable.
