Phase or schizophrenia?

My daughter is going through a phase right now. At least if you chose to believe a book that I've got. And I'm choosing to believe it. Because if it's not a phase, then it's probably schizophrenia. So a phase feels better.

Just had a bath on the photo above. Pretty obvious I guess.

Eight hours sleep, WITHOUT INTERRUPTION - luxury

People often ask mothers of infants if they get enough sleep. I've also gotten that question - many times. Funny how much people start caring about your sleeping patterns when you become a parent.

Anyway, I've always answered questions like that by saying that yes, I do get enough sleep, yes, Noam have been sleeping long nights since the start, and yes, she only wakes up to feed and then falls straight back to sleep again.

I've been lucky, I guess. But this morning, when I woke up after eight hours sleep without any interruption (as Noam slept all night), I still realized how much I've missed that. God it felt nice! I felt so alert and happy when I woke up. A true luxury that I had totally forgotten about during the last five months.

(Eight hours sleep, without interruption, means not waking up because of my husband watching TV or working until late, or waking up when he gets to bed, neither waking up from Noam lying in the bed farting and moving around like a helicopter, or waking up to feed).

A fun blog and a bad movie

I've started reading a pretty fun blog and want to share it. It's in Swedish. So those of you that understand Swedish, and want to read something better than the pointless posts in this blog, check it out. The address is: http://spankk.wordpress.com/

Also want to push my sisters blog again. Very entertaining! You can find the address to the right on this page. But I'll write it here too: http://geishaq.blogspot.com/

And finally, I wanted to prove my sister wrong today. She claims that I don't like any romantic comedies or chick lit movies. So I decided to watch the movie "Sex and the City". Thought I would actually enjoy it, as I thought the series was pretty fun, even tough I did not follow it fanatically. Well, unfortunately it seems like my sister is right after all. Had to add "Sex and the City" to the pile of chick lit movies that I didn't enjoy.It was all "on the nose", many scenes and lines seemed a bit forced, and it all felt a bit cheesy.

But despite all of that I managed to cry at least five times. This crying business, inherited from my mother, that both my sister and I have got, is almost embarrassing. Can barely watch an ad on TV without shedding a tear. Sad.

A fun Sunday

Me to Noam with a cheery voice:

"While Dad is in the gym we will eat some sticky potato pure. And after we've cleaned that up we will fold yesterday's laundry. Then, when Dad returns, we will do some very late spring cleaning. Doesn't that sound great?!"

Still with a happy voice. I wonder if Noam managed to see through my fake happiness and excitement about those Sunday tasks.

Noam's first taste of solids - the movie

Well, I was planning on solely posting this film on the blog where I write things about Noam, but I thought I could post it here too.

George Clooney and I

Last night I dreamt that George Clooney was giving me a back massage. I am not even going to try to figure out what made me dream that. But it was very nice. He was really working hard on a muscle knot, on the left side of my back, and I was totally digging it.

"Arn" sucks

Just watched the Swedish film "Arn". Probably the biggest budget ever in Sweden. Based on probably the most known books in Sweden.

It totally sucked! Can't believe that they are actually shooting part two. Who's going to watch it? Don't they have anything better to spend money on?

But at least there was some entertainment, caused by the person who ripped the film. He/she seemed to have done the subtitles with the help of Google translation. Hilarious!
