Lottie is all over the place right now - her crawling has doubled in speed - she is flying through the house now as opposed to the turtle like cruising she was doing before.  These last couple of weeks have certainly changed!!!! 

Lottie has become a lot more clingy, which the doctor said she would.  I literally can't put her down to play without her crawling, whining and reaching for me which of course I don't mind but at the same token, it makes getting everyday household chores difficult to get done.  The doctor also mentioned normal personality changes such as Lottie recognizing strangers as different.  That hasn't been too bad yet. 

TEETH!  Oh those darn teeth.........  We've officially got 4 teeth now!  They are so cute BUT definitely not cute coming in because as you can imagine they are painful! 

And let's not forget the CONSTIPATION!  TMI????  Poor baby has had a rough go of it these last couple of weeks between those teeth and not being able to poo!  She's been loaded up with prunes, pears, apple juice, you name it!  The good news is it looks like she is back on track after a full on pooping fest on Sunday and Monday which makes MAMA happy.  We've had two great nights of sleep and I am feeling somewhat human again!  :)

The blog has certainly been neglected lately!  SORRY!!!  Between work, the holidays and my growing little one, I've not had a chance to get much done these days.  Hopefully things will slow down here soon.  Gosh, before you know it Lottie will be a year old - which completely BLOWS my mind! 

Stay tuned for Lottie's First Thanksgiving post
