Our first baby, CeCe has really taken to Fiona more and more and the older she gets, the closer they seem to be. Fiona loves to give her hugs and kisses and throw throw her frisbee, she calls her in from the yard, gives her her food bowl and laughs at her wagging tail. CeCe is always following her around loves for us all to be together. I try to either throw frisbees in the yard or take her for walks every evening, but lately she has been putting the brakes on during walks. It is the strangest thing, we will get a few minutes in and then all of a sudden she will freeze and really dig in no matter how hard you pull. Sometimes I am able to coax her further, sometimes not. At first of course I thought she was injured, so I always check her legs and paws, but nothing. Then one day it dawned on me; this started soon after I found out I was pregnant. I know CeCe knows I'm pregnant because she has already started nosing my belly some nights in bed.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
So I put together this little theory, and so far I have been right every time. CeCe will pull back if I am with her by myself and Pat and Fiona are at home. The same thing happens if Pat takes her by herself and Fiona and I are home. She doesn't pull back when we are all together or if someone just isn't home when we leave for the walk. This has been consistent EVERY SINGLE TIME since I started this little experiment. She is Shepherding us! Once we get outside of a certain radius of the house, she gets uncomfortable with us being separated and pulls to head home. What a mama dog, right?</div>

Sometimes I can't believe how intuitive animals how and how protective and loyal they can be. Especially German Shepherds. Her job is going to get harder when we introduce a new baby in March, but I know she is up for the challenge!</div>

We love you CeCe, even when you push your toys on us and steal the covers. </div>

Our girl is two years old! She loves bubbles, blankets, and tucking in her babies. She is decisive, determined, and sweet as pie. She like her new tricycle, doll house, and train, but I think the water table from aunt Becci is her favorite! She repeats just about everything we say and I'm pretty sure she understands our lengthy conversations about animals, playing outside, and eating cupcakes. She stopped saying "dolshers" for shoulders, but started saying "cubby" for cuddle. I will correct her letters and numbers, but I will not correct her silly words! She is working on counting 1-5. She has trouble showing two on her fingers, but she's getting the idea. She at least knows five is more than one because when Pat asks her if she wants one or five M&Ms, she says five! She got a new stool to help mama at the counter and she loves to stand up there and make pizzas, frost cupcakes, and eat snacks. We love this little girl and are trying to hold on to these days before they slip away. Here's to two years, baby!</div>

Fiona got her tubes replaced and since then, she has been saying new words everyday! Sosh for lotion, which she is obsessed with rubbing on her hands. Ow for owl, faffle for waffle among others. She is obsessed with her touch and feel books, and of course, Brown Bear, Brown Bear. She likes to push around her doll buggy, but does not want anything to be in it. She has grown incredibly attached to her bunny, "goggin" and her blanket, "lankie". She is good at getting her winter hat on and can even do one mitten. She always takes them off in the car and then when I open the door, she puts her hands up and says "Go?" like where did they go, hahaha. Probably her most common word, Go!</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
She is showing early signs of potty training, which is exciting and scary. She points to her diaper after she has gone, she does not like to be wet very long. She also likes to play with wipes, so maybe sometimes she tells us she needs a change just so she can try to steal one...</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
She is starting to prefer Pat for certain things, especially when she wants to read books. She runs to great us at the door and comes in for a hug which is just the sweetest, most awesome feeling for us. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Love you, Ona bear!</div>

Wow, it has been 2 months since I added an update here! Life has been so crazy, but our little girl has been making us smile and laugh every day. She loves to play outside now and cries when we have to come in. She moved up to the toddler room at school and does all the big kid things like drawing, music class, and playground time. She knows to come in and sit down so we can help her take off her shoes! She loved the donuts at the cider mill and carrying her "boo bucket". She had Hand Foot and Mouth Disease the week leading up to Halloween, so she didn't get to come to work for our Boo Bash, but she still dressed up at home and at grandma's house as a kangaroo! she loved it once she realized she could put things in the pouch :) She is getting into the make believe stage and likes to play with her fridge I made out of a cardboard box. She carries around bowls and stirs in them with tiny spoons. And she LOVES to talk on the phone. She will turn anything into a phone and just bladabladablada away, it cracks us up every time! She is giving CeCe a lot more attention and wanting to hug her or press heads together. She also just became attached to her lovey, the white bunny. We are trying to set rules for where she can take it, but so far we get a mini tantrum every time we take it away. That attachment happened REALLY quickly!</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
She runs to the fridge and whines when she is hungry and also will pat her diaper when she is messy. We ask if she needs a change and she will go lay down on the floor in front of our changing station! She likes to climb the stairs when it is bed time and MUST brush her teeth, it's pretty cute (she just chews the bristles and sucks in the bubblegum toothpaste). We had our first tub poop the other night too....</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
She is currently working on stacking her blocks as I type this, another task she gets very proud of. It is so fun to watch her master new skills. Meal time is sometimes our least favorite time of day because she gets picky and throws all the food to the dog, but on days when she eats well, it seriously makes me so happy.</div>

We love you so much Fiona bird, we can't believe you are already 18 months!</div>

Fiona says "nana" for banana and "gog" for dog this week. Of course she also says mama and dada, but not sure if she associates those names with us yet. She says dada a lot when she is happy and mama a lot when she is unhappy...hmm.</div>

We ask her, "Do you want to go up to bed?" and she will start climbing the stairs! She loves carrying around this sugar bowl from her tea set from Aunt Becci, so I have been calling her Sugar Bowl Queen. We went to the downtown playground this weekend and it took her a little while to warm up, but she eventually starting climbing up things and running around on the wood chips. We were so proud of her!</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
She has been trying more foods lately and this week's favorites are guacamole on just about anything, and cannellini beans (she didn't like the rest of the ingredients of my white chicken chili!)</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
She is getting braver and more curious each day and she loves her dog, CeCe. She has been much more handsy with her so we have to remind her to be nice and pet softly.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
She is just growing so quickly I can hardly keep up. My favorite thing is when I kneel down, often she will run in for a quick hug. I melt! We love her so so much.</div>

Fiona is almost 16 months old and her personality is coming out more and more. She is getting pretty good at using her shape sorter and playing with her picnic basket. She makes kind of a cheesey face when smiling sometimes, I can't tell if she's faking it or not :)</div>

She loves to try and put her bib on herself, but takes it off if you put it on her of course. She always wants something tucked under her chin or around her neck: bibs, blankets, burp cloths, pants, anything! She is saying more consonants, I heard a Ca! when she was carrying around a toy car. We've spent some more time outside and today she actually stood in the grass and took a few steps! My mom came up for the weekend and blew bubbles for her and she loved it. She then spent the next 15 minutes chasing Pat all around downstairs and cracking up. Chasing and peek a boo are very big these days and so much fun! This is such a fun stage, I wish I could press pause!</div>

Fiona looks like such a big girl here! 15 months already. She loves to carry her pants around and pick up any clothes or bibs and carry those around too. I guess that's her version of the security blanket? This week she has been sitting on CeCe's bed and laying down there when she's tired. She went to her first wedding on Saturday with Pat and I, and my mom and sister. She lasted all the way til 8pm! Wild! Maybe next time she will get out on the dance floor :) Pat's mom got her a pink tulle dress that is too cute. She likes to walk with her arms straight out behind her, so she looks like a little fairy. Too precious. </div>

Wow, I am really behind on updating for Fiona! I've been trying to squeeze in time for my drawings so much lately, that a lot of things have been pushed to the back burner. Some of these pictures are way back from May! Fiona started walking around the 13 month mark and hasn't really crawled much since then. She gets so excited and waddle runs everywhere with her mouth wide open. She still loves to be held and walked around, but now she constantly has her index finger out, pointing at all the things. She likes to make clicking sounds with her mouth and cracks herself up. She had a few rough weeks with a lot of ear pain and now she is getting in some more molars, but for the most part she is a funny, happy little kid. She has always loved to play peek a boo, but now she likes to peek out from behind walls and it is so funny.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Fiona is eating all kinds of things now, she loves veggie straws and tortellini! She has tried popsicles, but hasn't quite figured out how to eat them. Blueberries are a go too, as well as peas.</div>

She likes to play in the tree swing and play with toys on a blanket, but still will not touch the grass. She loves to play what I call "bed crashers" where she just throws her self around on the bed and into pillows and just laughs and laughs. I swear she grew an inch over night, but her feet are still tiny :)</div>

We have done a bit more baby proofing since she can now climb up an entire flight of stairs by herself...this phase is so fun and she is so adventurous but its also scary for me when she tumbles and falls all the time. She is a good sport and I should learn from her, because she gets right back up again and keeps going.</div>

We have been so busy lately, I completely forgot to post any picture from our trip to San Francisco! We stayed downtown for four nights with some of Pat's friends and had a great time. You know first things first, I wanted to see some houses! We probably walked 8-10 miles each day, and my favorite was walking through the neighborhoods and whispering to myself, people actually live here! We walked from Fisherman's Wharf up to Lombard St (the most crooked street in America), walked all around Alamo Park where the Painted Ladies live and strolled through the different pockets to feast on the architecture. We definitely don't see this in the Midwest!</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
We took an open air bus tour around the city, saw the Golden Gate Bridge, and walked through Chinatown. Crossed over to the small resort town of Sausalito and spent time at the Golden Gate state Park, and took almost zero pictures of ourselves. Oh well, I got some great photos of some of the houses and when I plan on drawing some of them when I can find the time.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
We spent time down by the piers, saw the sea lions and ate clam chowder from a sourdough bread bowl. We only had three full days there after travel time, but we packed a lot in!</div>

We had the sweetest weekend celebrating Fiona's first birthday and Mother's Day. My mom and sister came over on Saturday and we had brunch and cake, opened presents, and played outside with Fiona's new wagon from grandma. On Sunday we went to visit Pat's family in Bay City and celebrated Mother's Day with Pat cooking brunch for everyone and another cake for Fiona. She got some more Beatrix Potter books, a Jelly Cat lovey, a radio flyer wagon, a swing for the tree, some toy cars, a sing a long book, a tea set, and of course, lots of cute summer dresses (and another mild case of pink eye...boo)!</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
We are more in love with this little beautiful girl more and more every day and love watching her learn new things. Her favorite activities include, feeding her food to CeCe, letting CeCe lick her hands, snugs with mama, tickles with daddy, carrying around her pants while jabbering, and now, using frosting as hand lotion.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
To celebrate her actual birthday tomorrow, Fiona is staying home from school with Grandma because she woke up with her third case of pink eye today...If you need us, we will be busy washing our hands!</div>

Fiona is only one week away form turning One! This little girl is turning into a toddler more and more everyday. This weekend she learned how to blow a kiss and give a high five. She isn't walking yet, just with assistance. She has stood on her own for a quick second a handful of times. She looks so surprised and proud when she does it. She is fascinated by bookcases, but I have them packed in so tight so can't pull them out. I did have to remove all the old book jackets because she could tear pieces off and put them in her mouth...</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
She doesn't have a favorite lovey yet, but she loves to carry around her socks and pants while she's crawling around. Sometimes I'll put them in her crib with her if she is still clutching them :)</div>

Our Rhododendron is blooming! Aside from a few tulips, this is the only color we have in the yard and I love seeing it everyday. We have been able to spend more time outside and are enjoying the wagon from Grandma Marie! We just need to get the canopy or figure out how to keep a sunhat on her head :)</div>

I have been busy doing house portraits any time I can squeeze them in. Fiona goes to bed so early so when I get home from work I spend my two hours with her and then get right to work after her bedtime. I work for a couple hours and then try to watch a show with Patrick before bed. Currently we are watching Shameless on Showtime. One of the characters is named Fiona Gallagher!</div>

I went to a mom sale on Friday night and got a jogging stroller which I've already taken for a spin and love! It is so much smoother than our current one and the canopy comes down a lot further so it shades Fiona's whole face. I also bought a ton of cute summer dresses and rompers that I can't wait to put her in. Bring on the warmer weather! </div>

Also, how cuddly is she??</div>

Wow, it's been a while since I updated and Fiona is already 11 months old and we have been buying birthday presents for a one year old! This little muffin is turning more into a toddler everyday and I love it so much. Of course I am always sad to pack her tiny clothes away, but this month I feel more excited than sad. She is babbling non stop, eating all new foods (when she is not leaning over to give her food to CeCe), and will walk across the room with our help! I picked up this fur hat at a mom2mom sale a little while ago and I think it's finally safe to say we can put it away until next winter. Now she has a fur hat to match her daddy's!</div>

I so love this photo of her messy hair in the bath, I blew it up using the engineer prints at Staples for less than 8 dollars. It's just a cheap black and white on thin paper, but I think it looks great in this frame at the top of the stairs. When Pat took her up to bed the other night he was saying goodnight to all the things; goodnight bathtub, goodnight dog, goodnight giant picture of you... hahahahaha</div>

I love this picture of Fiona because she is just contently playing by herself and picking out the toys she likes. She looks like such a big girl already. So independent, right?</div>

We are always cracking up at the faces she makes when she's eating or when she gets excited, and it is so fun to watch her figure out new toys. Thank you for the new shape sorter, Aunt Becci! Is she doing it right?</div>

In other news, I've had a few orders a week coming in on my Etsy shop for custom house portraits and I am still finishing up some orders from the first Brickyard Buffalo feature I did last month. I am going to do <i>another</i> BB feature starting Monday, so it's going to get <strike>bananas</strike> busy again. Thanks in advance for all your extra help around the house, Patrick!</div>

I've really been making an effort with my drawings this past months and was a featured vendor on Brickyard Buffalo, where I sold 40 custom house portraits in two days! They sold out much faster than I anticipated and I couldn't be more excited! My Etsy sales have also picked up from the exposure and they asked me back for next month! I love seeing photos of people's homes and hearing their favorites parts of the house, or this is the where we grew up and played in the yard. Each one is so different and I really love them all. I've worked my way through almost half of the portrait orders and these are some of my favorites.</div>

Not much news this week, just enjoying this taste of Michigan spring! The sun has been shining everyday and we have been playing outside every afternoon. Well, Fiona sits in her stroller, but CeCe is loving the extra frisbee time. I set Fi up off to the side like a queen's thrown watching the games. She claps and waves and it's so cute. One of her teachers at school said she waves through the window of the infant room when all the toddlers walk by. Hilarious!</div>

In other news, I finally did something with this enormous canvas I've been toting around since college (maybe before). It used to be blue with black birds on a wire, but now it is a subtle and beautiful abstract I made by layering about a million coats of paint on and brushing until I was happy with it. I want to build a frame for it with scrap from the shed, but that will probably have to wait until spring, so for now it is going to live in the dining room. It always feels good to move things around the house!</div>

Fiona is crawling and pulling herself up everywhere these days. You wouldn't even know she had another ear infection! Poor girl can't get over this cold but nothing seems to slow her down.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
We had a great weekend after I had a very difficult week at work. Fiona went to a Mom2Mom sale with the girls on Saturday and we bought lots of bunny themed books (for an Easter basket!) and of course clothes. This sale was crazy, people were packed in everywhere, everyone bumping into each other. Normally I don't like situations like that, but I did for discounted goods for ma girl! Pat's parents came for the afternoon and we went to a restaurant and Fiona just sat contently eating puffs the whole time and entertaining everybody with her wild arm gestures and baby bird babble.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Today we went to the state park again for a walk in the sunshine :)</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
I did another custom house portrait this week and I'm working on putting more drawings in my shop. I need some ideas for famous buildings to do!</div>

We've been trying more foods this month, solid bananas, solid sweet potatoes, pureed turkey and rice, pureed ham, and zucchini with broccoli. She really does not like the meats so far (doctor says it's the sodium), but girl cannot survive on puffs alone! She also likes to cross her feet when sitting on the floor, in her car seat, or in the high chair (a good time to trim those nails). I love those little piggies!</div>

This 55 degree weather is giving us some serious spring fever. I am so excited for warm weather and sunshine and all the cute baby outfits! And now that Fiona will be spending more time upright and standing instead of rolling around on the floor, I feel like the outfits can get more fun! Patrick made the mistake of taking me to the Carter's at the outlet mall, and they have so many more cute things there than what I always see at Target. These are a few of my favorites from their website that I may snag up while they are on sale, but I love all the rompers and spring dresses ;)</div>

We went to our favorite Island Lake State Park last night for a long walk. I wanted to have Fiona facing outward in the big kid part of the stroller, but it was so windy we kept her covered up with the canopy. I need to make a summer bucket list of all the things we want to do. Fiona will be walking and running around I'm sure and I want to spend a lot of time outside encouraging her curiosity of nature. We just bought a bigger carseat (from Costco of course) and it's going to be bittersweet installing it!</div>

I've been wanting to add a drawing to Fiona's room that she can have for a long time, so I finally got around to putting together this little sketch with pen and marker. It fit perfectly in a frame I've had forever that never knew what to do with. Boom! I think I'll hang it above the twin bed.</div>

We did a lot of shopping this weekend (why did we choose the coldest days of the year to go to the outlet mall? at night!?) and took our valentine out to dinner on Saturday. She sat in our laps and ate puffs. She can get them in her mouth herself now, but as Pat says, she is not super organized about her movements yet. It's funny when they fall in her sleeve and she looks around for them! I'm glad she likes those because lately she has not been wanting to finish her bottles and I'm worried about her calorie intake. I know she should be getting more nutrients from solid foods, but a lot of what we give her ends up with a diaper rash, so it has been discouraging trying to find the right thing. But, like everything else, trial and error is what we do!</div>

Aaaaannnd we're going to need to put those baby gates up soon, but we have to decide what to do since the gates are all "pressure" fit, they push the banister out when they are in tight and we're afraid of causing a lot of damage in this old house. I'm sure Patrick will come up with something! She is obsessed with the stairs because obviously they are the perfect height for her little legs. She is now very good at pulling herself up on just about anything and has taken a few very wobbly (and very unorganized) steps to shuffle around the ottoman. We got her a push toy and I know she will be cruising in no time. Look out, CeCe!</div>

Rounding out 8 months and ready for 9 months over here! Crawling all over the house and starting to pull herself up. We really need to get those safety gates up, she stood to the second step! Pat took her to the doctor for a check up and all looks good.</div>

I still have a long way to go, but i had so much fun getting crafty with this scrap book. I wanted it to be a mixture between a photo album and a baby milestone book without being too scrap book-y. I bought some craft paper that was on clearance at Michael's (yay!). It Valentine's themed, which turned out to be perfect for all the love and x' sand o's in this book. I want to add more stories and funny moments as I remember them (so i don't forget them again) and I will be better at writing down dates as I go on now that I am more caught up.</div>

Hard week at the Gallagher household: first ear infection, blazing fevers and a small bout of pneumonia. The smell of that pink medicine reminded both Patrick and I of our childhoods. Thank goodness we are towards the end and sweet Fi is back to her normal self. She is starting to pull herself up! So exciting and immediately terrifying, like most of motherhood I'm finding to be true. I want to pad all the floors and walls, and finding more and more things that are not quite baby proof.</div>

I ordered some more BabyLit books, which are my absolute favorite. They are just so charming! Some day she will have the whole set and and I know soon after that she will already be reading them to me instead of the other way around. Can all this growing up slow down a bit?</div>

There are just so many things I feel are flying by and I'm trying to remember them all. I took this shot of my favorite six month onesies before packing them away. This blog does help me remember little things, but I've committed myself to starting an actual baby book complete with milestone dates, hospital bracelets and special cards. If I'm writing it here, then I have to hold myself to it! I haven't found any that I like, so I'm venturing to make my own.</div>

As Fiona is growing out of her clothes so quickly, I get sad to see some favorites get packed away, so I wanted to start saving some pictures to remember them. I ordered the dress, leggings and slippers from H&M, I love their stuff! Fi has already been wearing the bunny slippers and I can't wait to put that sweet little knit dress on her. I love these Bambi leggings, which are very fitting since I just bought a vintage Bambi Golden Book at an estate sale last weekend. I'm obsessed! I've deemed her an official crawler now, so she <i>needs</i> these slippers, right? Also, they don't come in my size...I checked.</div>

The picture below really cracks me up even though she is totally wiping out. She is lazy and likes to slide on the hardwood floor. I missed her first few movements that could actually be labeled crawling while I was at work. Patrick sent a video that brought me to tears because I was so upset I was missing it. I guess there's not much else that can embarrass me at work now that I've sobbed in front of my entire team! I know most parents work full time, but some days it is so hard and seems like cruel torture. I know stay at home moms are always defensive about how much work they do around the house (and they do a lot!), but they are also incredibly lucky that they don't have to cry at their desk because they are missing these milestones. When I got home she was over tired and cranky and so was I. She has had a few more good runs this weekend, but it is so hard to catch them on video because she always stops to look up at the camera. She is working so hard this week and I know she will get the hang of it so soon.</div>

I've been busy adding more drawings to my Etsy shop, trying to get them in while Fiona is sleeping. She really tires herself out trying to crawl!</div>

It's hard to believe little Fiona bug is already 8 months old. She is going to be crawling any day now, but in the mean time she will just keep sliding around backwards. I caught her here getting herself into a pickle! She is still working on her top four teeth. I guess she wanted to get them all over with at the same time...efficient.</div>

I'm really not one for New Year's resolutions. I think if you want to make a change, you will do it when you're ready. But this year I did resolve to draw more, or at least doodle more. I started doodling little houses and decided to add some to my Etsy shop. It's been a while since I've had anything in there and it feels good. Baby steps for me too!</div>

We had such a family filled week with my mom and sister visiting us for Christmas day and a quick trip to Bay City to see Pat's family. We had all had a great time with lots of new memories. I was a little concerned about Fiona's mood since she is currently trying to learn to eat from a spoon, trying to crawl, cutting new teeth and still fighting her never ending cold. Girlfriend is <i>busy</i>. Her current crawling status is rotating around a full 360 degrees and scooting backward until she gets stuck in a corner or her legs get stuck under the couch! She was so sweet and cuddly and thank goodness she loves sucking her thumb because that appendage gets her through a lot. Patrick was able to have some time off work and we even went to see the new Star Wars movie. The holiday went so fast but we are excited to play with Fiona's new toys and sweet books. She got a lot of cute clothes, some rubber blocks, which she loves knocking down towers we build so she can chew on their edges. She also got a rocking horse and a stuffed bear that repeats everything you say back to you in a chipmunk voice! Michigan didn't have a white Christmas this year, but there is still plenty of winter left for Fiona to wear her snowsuit. We are so blessed to have this happy baby with us to make the holiday season so bright, and blessed to have a wonderful family who love her so much.</div>

I wouldn't say we're that close to crawling, but we have some backwards wiggle movement going on. Fiona can slide backwards until she gets stuck in the corner and makes her struggle face. This makes CeCe pretty uncomfortable so I was amazed when I saw her laying so close on the floor this morning. Fiona officially passed the 7 month mark this week. She holds her hand out and babbles gagaga, bababa and dadada almost constantly (unless she has her thumb in her mouth or is busy holding her bottle herself!). We tried bananas this week with pretty much the same outcome. Just holding it in the front of her mouth, I'm not sure if she actually swallowed any! She still fits into 6 month tops, but has started wearing 9 month bottoms, she has long legs like her mama....cute, but harder to shop for.</div>

The first week at the new daycare went great for Fiona and made my morning commute a little easier (win!) Besides really short naps, the teachers said she did fabulously and was pretty happy most of the day. We've been able to get some longer naps at home lately once we had a stroke of genius and decided to move her upstairs with the sound machine instead of downstairs in the play yard. And aHa, we should actually close her door all the way so CeCe can't get in there to wake her up. Why does it take so long to figure out these little obvious things?!</div>
