Katelyn is such a happy little girl with Mommy and Daddy! She has really started playing with her toys. She loves her exersaucer and can spend long periods batting her toys and pulling on them. She has found her feet, too, and is starting to play with them. She is becoming quite dexterous. She also loves being pulled into a standing position.
She is also "talking" a lot. Babbling and cooing and screeching. She loves to communicate with us!
I especially love when she just looks up at me, smiles, and sighs. I feel so loved! SHe is truly my baby doll - I love kissing those soft, round cheeks!
Sleep is going about the same - down at 8:30, up around 2:00 and then around 6:00, and then around 10:00 to start her day. We've mostly stopped on the solids for now. She's doing fine just nursing. Naps are OK at home, but if we are out she will stay awake all day! It is crazy! And for the most part be in a good mood!
I've had a busy week so I have been letting her sleep with me. However, she's getting spoiled - she dies well the first time she goes down but was not going back down at 5:30. I was trying to get her to hold on to her bunny rabbit while I nursed her. I put it under her arm for her to hold - and she reached right over it and gripped my shirt - like, nice try Mama, but I want you, not some bunny rabbit!
The biggest challenge we have is when we leave her with other people. She loves Mommy and Daddy very much! In the past three weeks we've had two shows to go to - Grandpa Bob and Grandma DeeDee watched her once and Grandpa Gary and Nonna watched her the other time, and she pretty much screamed the entire time we were gone. Geoffrey used to be fussy when we left him, but Katelyn gets really upset. I know that is hard for the people watching her - because they love her so much!
One more thing - Katelyn went to her first musical - we went to see Drew perform in Les Miserables - she did SO WELL sitting with me throughout the performance!
I love my baby girl so much it is insane!
