Almost every day, during my lunch hour, I take the 5 minute drive to my parents' house, where Animalia lives during the day. Typically I nurse her, eat something, maybe nurse her again and play a little.
Today, I walked in, she was half asleep in her Nana's arms and she kind of did this drunk baby lurch toward me. So I took her and she fell asleep almost immediately, her head nestled against my shoulder. A few minutes later, I put her in her moses basket. She slept for half an hour.
When she woke up, I was in another room. My mom picked her up and called me and I walked into the room. The Animalia immediately squealed and lurched toward me. She was so excited to see me. It was thrilling. Really. It all sounds so minor but it's nice to know that she knows me and in her tiny baby way, loves me. It's not the first time she did that either but today it made me feel especially good.
Love her, love her.

About Me
- flojera_tremenda
- flojera_tremenda means either a giant lazy ass or a great tiredness. I think it describes me perfectly depending on the day. Mi Animalia... a play on my daughter's name. She's my monster, I called her pansona at first, now her name is Animalia and sometimes Mals. And then came baby #2. First she was Magdi or Mads, now she's called Teeny by her doting big sister. Whatever. I'm really enjoying motherhood. It suits me. So I started this blog to keep track of the Animalia and then later Mads and to have somewhere to talk about how cool she is. Not everyone cares about kids. And I mean that in the nicest way possible.
