40 weeks

The end of June marked 40 weeks for Ms. Sloane.

After a rough patch, she was sleeping great and practicing all sorts of new skills like pulling up on toys.

Bonus! When she started pulling up, she got to show off her fancy bottom.

She also started making the sign for milk (see her clenched fist). Sadly, this coincided with my declining ability to produce milk. As my body significantly reduced its supply, I went through a difficult hormonal shift with massive headaches, nausea and a weighty, depressive sense that I was failing my little girl. But one month later, I trudge on, producing what I can and supplementing as needed. Frankly, she doesn't seem to mind, which is a blessing. I love this little honey badger.
