Memorial Day!

Today Andy came up to me and said "I think I have water in my ear" to which I said "go put some alcohol in it to dry it up". Andy then said---- "I am not going to waste a beer." I can't wait until it is Alex saying stuff like this.

She is really jumping in her jumper now and wants to be in it all the time. The video above shows her jumping capabilities!

Can you just see the attitude in this picture? What a messy oatmeal baby!

Long Weekend ahead!

Ok, so it is already Sunday but we are sooooo excited to have an extra day to play with Alex. We are also starting her on solids again starting this time with oatmeal. She seems so much more interested in it this time. If I could only get her to stop moving her whole face to the spoon and stop doing the motorboat I think it would be a lot cleaner. (But that is the whole joy of feeding a baby right?)

She can now touch her toes to her nose and lick them too! When she does put them in her mouth she gets this face like she ate a lemon. She is also doing a lot better on her tummy. She can prop herself up on her elbows and look around. While on her stomach she can scoot around a bit but not much. She can roll to either side and can roll from stomach to back. I haven't seen her roll from back to stomach yet but I am sure it is coming. She never wants to be on her back anymore and her favorite activity is standing up like a big girl.

So Alex is ready for some fun in the sun and I wish all of you were here to see her! She is getting such a little personality and it is hilarious! She loves to make people laugh and to be the center of attention. I took her to the grocery store yesterday and usually she would sleep through it all but now she was smiling at everyone. She would smile and act coy to all the gentlemen and flirt with them. Of course everyone always looks at her and she loves it!
