Little Green Bumbo


Every time I was in the baby section at the store, I considered getting this "Bumbo" chair for Kayla and resisted until now. They had a green one in stock so I finally splurged and bought it. Now I'm glad. As you can see, she likes it alot! She'll just sit back in her chair and watch TV with us. It's great!







Tummy Time


For the first time EVER, Kayla did not cry when I put her on her tummy! I haven't been enforcing tummy time as much as I should because she usually just lays her head down and cries. But on this day, she liked it! Well, at least for 5 whole minutes.

Kayla meets her Great-Grandparents




Uncle Barry, Auntie May, Cousin Bryant, and Paw-Paw and Gung-Gung (my Grandma and Grandpa) all came down for a quick visit. This was my Grandparents' first time seeing Kayla in person. They'd only seen her through Skype (webcam). Of course Kayla was cranky most the time and didn't want to be held by anyone but me so we didn't get very many pictures.

Oh Kayla, you're so cute!

I finally decided to take Kayla's Jumperoo out of the box and put it together. Here she is trying it out for the first time. You can't tell in this picture, but her feet don't touch the ground yet and it's on the lowest setting. She seemed to like it anyway. I've since then put a pillow underneath so that she can use her feet to bounce. She'll be ready for the walker soon!

She loves her Binky now! For three months I tried to get her to take it and she'd just spit it out. I even tried several different shapes and sizes. Now she can't live without it. She prefers to suck on her fists, but I'm trying to not let her get in the habit of that. I'm relieved because finally there is something that helps to stop her crying!
