Not sleeping has its consequences

I'm so tired that in the last hour I put used paper towels in the washing machine, almost caused a car accident and decided it was a great idea to push the pram through the park with my eyes closed because that almost counts as a nap. Tomorrow will be six months since I last had a peaceful night of unbroken sleep. The fact that I'm happy when I manage to sleep for three hours makes me want to cry.

First long nap

M took a 2 hour long afternoon nap for the first time in her life today! But she also woke up and insisted on being entertained at 5.40 in the morning so I guess these two things balance each other out.

Skiing trip

Fifth day of our skiing trip. Today I went skiing on my own and so far it was quite eventful. I got a free skiing lesson from an old Austria now ski instructor I met on a chairlift, I fell down hard while walking into a restaurant, I lost a ski pass but in my skiing jacket I found a random key, probably from our skiing trip two years ago. I'll now finish eating my greasy chicken and try to get on a ski lift by using the magic key.

Starting with solids

A month ago, it was recommended by our doctor to start feeding M solids. So far we tried quite a few different things so there's enough information for a list of likes/dislikes:
Food M spits out immediately with a disgusted face: carrots, apples, pears. 
Food M spits out immediately with a straight face: zucchini. 
Food M keeps in her mouth for a few seconds before spitting it out: bananas. 
Actually, we really just have a list of dislikes.

Third wedding anniversary

Three years ago on this date, J and I had our first drink of champagne out of McDonald's coffee cups as a married couple after almost being late to our own wedding. This year M gave us the nicest gift - the best night of sleep since she was born. 
I'm a very happy girl and feel full of love for my little family.

Baby's superpower

M's superpower is making extremely loud noises even with the dummy in her mouth. It's a useful skill when you have a lazy mum who thinks she deserves to sleep longer than 4 hours a night.
