Updating

It has been a while since I updated. During this time not much has changed. Lauren still takes great naps. I just wish I could space them out a bit more. She has a great morning nap about 2 hours after she wakes up. Then she seems to want to have another nap 2-2 1/2 hours after that. It doesn't seem to be enough time for me to get stuff done outside the home though. It also doesn't seem to make a difference in her night time sleep. Sometimes she wakes once or twice a night sometimes it is every 2 hours. I have stopped going to her every time to see if she will settle on her own. When i say that it is every 2 hours that is every 2 hours that i actually have to get up with her cause she isn't settling. This weekend was awful. She was awake almost all night and screaming. We couldn't find a reason though. She isn't teething that we know of. She wasn't gassy or to hot or cold. Tony actually had her come to our bed where she still was screaming. He finally took her out to the living room to play with her. She didn't want to play but eventually fell asleep out there and slept for over an hour with him rubbing her back as she slept on the floor. then after a weekend of no sleep for either of us she had a 3 hour morning nap on Sunday and a hour afternoon one. Sunday night she slept till 2:30 Monday and then slept till 8. She did this again last night. We will see what happens this weekend. We have an appointment at the bank on Saturday at 11 which will be right when she is going to want to nap so it should be interesting.

She still isn't sitting at all and doesn't seem to want to. We have all these exercises to do with her but they don't seem to work well. She gets onto her tummy though and gets her knees up as if she is going to crawl. The only problem is her arms aren't strong enough so they just push her backwards and then she gets mad cause she is getting farther and farther from the toy she was trying to get.

As I said before we are going to the bank on Saturday. We have to figure out if we are going to move or build onto here. I am not looking forward to either one but we need a bigger place. This one just won't cut it for us anymore. I am just not looking forward to extending the mortgage. It is hard enough being on mat leave right now and playing bills i really don't want to do this. If we have another baby it will be the same where i only make about 40% of my wage and it hurts us. We only have 13 years left on the mortgage and i don't want to extend that too much right now either so I am having issues. I know that we have to do something though cause I can't stay living here with this tiny house either.
