Scooterin'!!
















Last week it was in the 70's here so I jumped on the bicycle and Zane jumped on the scooter with Daysha, she must have felt just like she was in a car as she fell asleep! I then had to take my turn on the scooter with her, she LOVES being outside, can't wait for summer! We've been trying some more foods, applesauce, blueberry applesauce and sweet potatoes, all of which she loved, she knows to open her mouth when she sees the spoon, she's a little pro! Not surprising as her parents love to eat too! She's been rolling and really trying to sit up now too - this little girl is ready to go!!

First Food!
















Daysha had her 4 month appt. on January 9th, she weighs 13 lbs and grew 4 inches from her 2 month appt. to this one and is now 25 1/4 inches! The nurse actually re-measured her height as is was such a significant growth! She had her shots and did really well, cried for a few minutes and then was over it! She still has her little rip curl mohawk, which I love, not sure what I'll do when it grows out - and of course she's just as adorable as ever! She's been nursing exclusively for the last three months and I was getting a little worried that she wouldn't take a bottle becuase we've been trying diligently and she wouldn't have anything to do with it, until about a week ago! I tried giving her a new binki and to my surprise she took it (she took one for a couple days at Christmas time but didn't want anything to do with it after a couple days), so I thought, hey I'm going to give the bottle a try and she took that too! Woo hoo. I have a little more flexibilty now and I think she is actually sleeping a little better now that she has her binki and is going a little longer between eating (from 2 hours to 3) which is nice! At her appt. her doctor said we could start to introducte rice cereal so we mixed it with a little milk and she seemed to really like it, we actually got some in her belly (I think!). I was eating an apple a couple days ago and decided to see if she liked it, boy she didn't want to let it go - it was super cute watching her suck on it with apple juice dripping down her chin! I think she's going to be a good eater, like her dad, open to try anything!
