big guns and arms races

[psocoptera]

Well, I made it to day 178 before giving up and driving around the block purely and solely to put Juniper to sleep. (As opposed to, say, running planned errands earlier.) I'm always hesitant to use the big guns but she's having a really rough time napping lately. Probably her tooth.

She also finally crawled over the edge of the cosleeper onto the bed this morning (she's been working on it gleefully for awhile) so it has now been converted to "four walls" mode. As soon as she starts pulling to stand, Now that she's pulling to stand, though, the walls won't be tall enough, so we're either going to have to drop the floor down to play-yard mode or buy an actual crib. Right now she's pulling to kneeling upright or occasionally standing bent forward (sort of the same way she'll briefly push up to hands and feet from hands and knees) so... yeah. It's hard to believe how recently she was a passive little slug, now that she's this determined little mover.

ETA: Well, that was fast.
