May happenings:
Taken at the beginning of May. The people who do our lawn had just mowed the front and skipped the back again… It was about a foot high here and it had been a few weeks to a month since the back had been mowed. They finally mowed the backyard yesterday, a month after this picture was taken, and the grass was over 2 feet high in some places!
Super baby
Kayla is about 3 months and a week here wearing 6 month clothes (now a month later the 6 months are getting snug and she's wearing mostly 9 months)
This sweet girl has been sleeping through the night! Right around 3 months she started sleeping through the night (about 8-9 hours). She'll wake up around 6-7 am and take a bottle, then fall back asleep for an hour or two. Then when she wakes up she is as happy as can be!!
Multi-tasking ;)
around 3 months and a few weeks she decided she loved being on her tummy and would spend most of her time this way
Mommy finally got around to making a taggie. Kayla is a big fan :)
There's a park nearby our duplex and every once in a while they'll have a movie at the park night. This time it was Brave. We had a great time, even though we left before it was over.
I seriously LOVE these two!!
With the sweet girl who made me a momma on Mother's day <3
She used to take her pacifier, Mr. Froggie (a wubanub) as we call him, to go to sleep. She started finding her thumb instead and IMO it's the cutest thing. Now about a month later she refuses her pacifier and cries until I make her a bottle (which she barely drinks) or until she falls asleep. It's torture letting her cry it out sometimes, but totally worth it in the long run! I don't know what 'method' it's called, but I read up on one that I really like. You let her cry for 5 minutes and check on her pat or say goodnight (whatever is part of your routine) and then don't go back for 10 minutes and repeat. You're supposed to do it again but wait 15 minutes or something along those lines. But once she's been crying for that long I just give in and give her a bottle. So maybe I'm still a sucker for her cries, but I'm working on it ;)
Another weekend trip to Katy. Hanging out with Bella and Papa!
Monday morning after we had come home from Katy, Kayla decided it was time to roll! A month later and she will still only roll to her left. She's progressing though, sometimes she'll roll more than once and end up on her back again! Haha.
That same day (a week shy of 4 months) she started eating rice cereal for the first time. She would continue to cry with only 4 ounces so we'd give her 6 to satisfy her, but then she'd spit up a ton up to an hour after she ate. So we decided to give it a try. And she doesn't come close to the way she used to spit up. This is just worked for us, every baby is different of course.
One evening we discovered this… now she just smiles or laughs though, so at least we got it on video ;) Haha.
