We are finding out that she loves to sit up and enjoy the world! No cradling this little babe. So we ordered a Bumbo seat for her to sit in. But didn't realize that someone's thighs might not fit in the seat!! So there is a new seat by BebePod in the mail that I found for the chubbier baby population. In fact, most of the reviews by parents started out with "The bumbo seat was too tight..."
We also made our first visit to a new moms group. It was so great to have Ellie around other little ones that are so close to her age. And she did so great for the 2 hours we were there! Hopefully this will be a weekly tradition for us over the next couple of months.
The introduction to daycare is next on our list. We're going to have her spend a few half days next week at St. Andrew's to get her ready for her first long day on the 30th. Pretty sure it's going to be harder on her mommy than her!
Other Big Milestones:
We heard her first laugh...not a giggle, but a full on LOL! She hasn't done it since, but we're looking forward to the next time. And we'll have the video camera ready!!
She is still on the top of her growth curve...16lbs 3oz as of the beginning of April. And she's 25" long, which means she is currently sporting her 6 month sleepers and we have had to cut out the bottom of her swaddle sacks because apparently the large size is not large enough!!
In deep thought...while sleeping
Happy baby after a fresh diaper change
Just hanging with mom and watching two of her favorite friends, Butterfly and Ladybug (she hasn't come up with any creative names yet)
CUTE BUNS!
TUMMY TIME
FUN TIME
The face of a baby getting ready to eat...she loves her food!
Ironically this is what she is doing right now while I post this. Baby Bjorn is her kryptonite!
"What are you doing in my chair?"
Love her!
