I'm back! (for now)

I know, it has been a long time since my last post.. But I do the best I can! Ever since my parents started truck- driving together, all of my spare time has been consumed by my sweet baby girl. Ah, those babies! By the way, last night Olivia hit one of those milestones that made her (and her Mommy) stay up till 1:30am! Here is what happened: we put her to bed around 9pm, and 5 minutes later she started crying so loud, as if somebody was cutting her in half! I ran upstairs, opened the nursery, and - there was Olivia standing up on her feet while holding onto the bedrails, and screaming like crazy! I tried to put her down numerous times, but it didn't work. I checked the diaper, tried to feed her, carry her around - nothing worked. After few hours I decided that it was enough for both of us, and I gave her a drop of Benadryl(hated doing it). I carried her in my arms a little more, talked to her calmly, and only then she went down with a little bit of squeaking. Surely, she slept till 10 am next morning!
