February 24, 2011 - Grandma & Grandpa Neal Visit, Kisses, Music Together, Swimming, Sharing

Sorry that I haven't posted in a while. I had 8 baby hats to make, so most of my time for the last week has been focused on that. I am so excited that I'm done because now I can actually spend some time with Bryanna and Scott!

We had a nice weekend with Grandma and Grandpa Neal. They came on Friday and it was 60 degrees that day! It was such a teaser, I could smell Spring in the air. The rest of the weekend was pretty cold so we just did some shopping. Bryanna started giving me kisses a couple of weeks ago, but she has stepped it up to a whole new level. She would just put her mouth up to my cheek but now she gets that tongue out there too making them extra sloppy. She gave Grandma and Grandpa lots of those!

We started a Music Together class with our friend Beth and her baby Elsie. It is a lot of fun, singing, dancing and playing music. We also signed Bryanna up for a swimming class that starts this Sunday. Scott is really excited to be able to take Bryanna to a class. 

Bryanna has started sharing too. She will be chewing on her teether and then put it up to my mouth so I can teeth on it too...it's very cute.

We can't hide anything from Bryanna. She has been getting into things that you wouldn't even think would be a problem. She reaches for things that are higher up and she can pick up the tiniest crumbs from the floor.

Bryanna has been extremely fussy the last couple of days. We took her to the pediatrician to check her ears, just to rule out an ear infection. He said her ears are fine and that it is probably teething. It's so hard when she is whining almost all day (especially when I was trying to make those hats), but at least now that I know it is probably the teething, I can try to help her ease the pain the best I can.

The ped. said the rash on her hands is a saliva rash from 
putting her fingers in her mouth...which she is doing all day!

She keeps making this face...monkey face?

I gave her some Baby Oragel and she started smacking her lips

Her favorite thing to do is grab her hair with her messy fingers!
