It has been a wild one! Laela had a wonderful week in daycare. Her teachers comment, on a daily basis, about how smiley she is. Oh...I love it and you don't know how wonderful it is to pick her up after a long day of work. She just smiles at me and then I forget how tired I am! Also, she found her feet this week and is "talking" so much more. Laela still loves to eat anytime we will give her a bottle and her naps have tapered down a little. Seems that she wants to know everything that is going on during the day so she really just takes small power naps with an occasional hour or hour and a half nap. Her bedtime routine has become a more consistent with her going to bed about 10:00 and waking up at 5:00. What more could we ask for...we are blessed to get 7 hours of undisturbed sleep. :)
Here are a couple of Laela's cute school outfits! Notice too how smiley she is and each of these were taken around 7:00 in the morning.
This outfit says 100% mommy's girl. So far this has been a proven statement. She is not completely spoiled yet, but there are times that daddy or someone else has Laela and she just wants to be with mommy. I love it!
Daddy almost didn't let her out of the house with this one on. The top says "sweet as can be" and the skirt is adorable. Daddy thinks it should cover her legs, but that is no fun!
I have been at school a lot this week. There are so many things to do and so little time. Because of the long hours, Ro has been spending a lot of time bonding with Laela. He has definitely learned a lot about her...what she loves to do, how to hold her just right, her eating/sleeping habits, and even her favorite song. YES...you read it right...Ro sings to Laela. When he told me about it, I labeled him a "closet singer." He won't do it when I am around, but supposedly Laela loves when her daddy sings "How much is that doggy in the window?" She loves the "ruff, ruff" part. He sang it to her one morning while I was getting ready and here she is giggling at him. Oh man...I can't wait to catch him in the act!!!
It seems that Laela's best awake/learning time is in the morning, so I take advantage of it. I love to read her books, sing silly songs, and just make noises with my mouth. Obviously she loves these things too!
Early today we practiced tummy time. Laela is doing such a great job holding up her head and thinking that she is a big girl. She can last about 5 minutes laying on the Boppy pillow, then she gets frustrated. Great job baby!
Here she is about 9:30 tonight. We just came home from visiting a friend. She drank her bottle about 30 minutes earlier and took a nap in the car. STILL SMILING even though we are getting her ready for night, night time.
