Ella didn't really appreciate the snow very much. We got her all bundled up, which she was already upset about, and then being out in the cold was just adding insult to injury. I guess either the cold wind or the brightness of the sun on the snow was bothering her because she pretty much refused to open her eyes.
Thank goodness Jeff ended up getting a snow day today. Ella had us up all night last night. I think we probably ended up only getting about four hours of sleep. I don't know what was wrong with her, I think she just wanted to be up and playing. It was no fun. I think it was probably the hardest night we've had with her ever. Little stinker! She has been napping during the day a lot better, like a long 3 hour nap in the morning and another one in the afternoon. I hope that's not why she's not sleeping at night...
She's been sitting in her bumbo this week and sitting up with very little support from us. She also rolled over on her mat once this week, usually she just rolls when she's in bed. She started blowing bubbles which is cute, but kind of messy. She does this thing sometimes when she's falling asleep where she "talks" quite loudly, just mumbling away. She sounds like she's airing her grievances. It's so funny. It's hard not to laugh at her when she does it. She also started putting things in her mouth this week. If she gets a grip on something, she does her best to bring it up to her mouth. She's not always successful, but she tries. She's been chewing on her hands a lot too, which has been a little confusing for me because that used to be her early hunger cue. Now she does it all the time, so I'm never sure if she wants to eat or what. Fortunately she's gotten a lot more patient about waiting a minute or two to eat once she decides she's hungry. She rarely cries to eat any more.
