How long should night time sleep be for an 8 month old? Not stretches of sleep because im sure they're all different, but total night time. This leap had taken C from 11-12 hrs (with 1-2 wakeups) to maybe 8-9 hrs, still with at least 1 wakeup. I feel like she should still be getting 12 hrs but she doesn't fall asleep til 10 or 11 every night, then wakes up around 7-8 but just doesn't seem like her happy morning self.
She does take 2 naps usually during the day, usually a 2 hr and a shorter 30-60 min.

She does take 2 naps usually during the day, usually a 2 hr and a shorter 30-60 min. Still 11-12 according to this chart: www.mybabysleepguide.com/2013/02/average-sleep-charts-by-age.html?m=1The only think I can think of is maybe she's not ready for just two naps yet and she's overtired? According to the chart 8 months are in the 2-3 nap range. I've noticed dd is taking more naps during this leap, 3-4. She's never been a long napper so most are 45-60 minutes. She really can't go more than 3 hours of awake time without getting a bit grumpy. Obligatory all babies are different, etc etc. Dd goes down at 7 and gets up around 6-6:30. She normally has one wake up around 4-5 that we are working on dropping. Read: cry it out because mommy was about to go crazy with the lack of sleep.

No Sunday paper today. I think it was a guerrilla marketing campaign where they send you the paper for a month and are all "look at these glorious coupons! Don't you want to subscribe to the paper?!" Or they just delivered it to the wrong house for weeks. Ah well. The coupons were really good last week so it is tempting but I'll pass.

I found 2 fleas. 😡😡😡😱 I freaked out, called my vet, got the pills that kill them immediately and vacuumed all the things. I also spent way too much time watching tv too. I thought vacuuming would encourage me to clean as well, but no, all counters and table tops are as is. 🤦♀️

E has been fussy this weekend, we realized she is has 3 teeth coming in. 3 Two on top one on the bottom and she already has 3. I'm actually shocked she isn't fussier.

I got to hold a two week old baby yesterday. Tony and perfect.
We (hub and I) went to a party yesterday afternoon, but came home for bedtime. It was a ton of fun. ALL parties should start at 3pm, lol.
Today I took my big to the gym with me. Family pix were canceled because of rain.
I also went to target AND Wal-Mart today. Yeeesh.

I had to take one of our cats to the vets today because he's not eating. While I was there a lady that works for him (cleaning I think, I've never seen her) came in the room while I was bsing with my vets daughter and saw me nursing C. She said, oh, I'm sorry are you nursing? I said yeah, but come in, everyone's seen a boob before.
So she does, and when C finished she says "wow, she's big, how old is she?" "8 months" "8 months?? She should be eating meat and potatoes by now!"
"Yeah, she does, but my boobs travel better."
Idiot.
