Mommy is excited that Grandma Linda will now post to Abi’s blog.  And Grand Daddy Michael had a great comment too!

Here are some random thoughts about the last day:

• Abi has not been sleeping well recently.  Last night, she woke up at 3, 5 and 7AM.  Mommy is tired.  Hopefully, she will start to sleep better soon.
• Abi’s gums seem to be bothering her.  She really clamps down on Mommy (ouch).  No visible teeth yet.
• Today, Mommy bought Abi a winkel  

Abi likes it because it is small enough to fit into her hands, she can pull and push on it, and it makes noise.  Abi has really been making a killing in terms of toys.     

• Mommy and Abi went to their last “Next Stages” class.  Abi enjoyed plaing with large, soft balls

• Unfortunately, this was the last class.  We took group pictures.
• All babies are within a few months age of each other.  One mom, who is 39, was talking about having more kids since she is “getting on”.  Mommy thinks that the oldest mom in the class is 45 – so Mommy does not feel so old now.
• Subsequently, Mommy & Abi went to the library, where they borrowed several baby music CDs.  They listened to one a little at home – Abi seemed to enjoy it even though she was clearly sleepy.  She heard Ten in the Bed, This Little Light of Mine, Old MacDonald Had a Farm, and The More We Get Together.  The last song was sung almost every week in the Next Stages class, and Abi seemed to recognize it.
• Abi is now asleep, and Mommy is going to get to sleep too.  Good night!
