Just A Little Sun!

Ahhh...quiet! Miss Phia didn't want to nap yesterday and today I was determined to get her to nap. I feel like a better mom when I get a little break during the day. It took 20 minutes of quietly fussing in her crib and now she is asleep! It's the little things!

Yesterday we kept ourselves very busy. We made avocado for Phia, got her bananas in a bag, swept the kitchen floor, made breadsticks, made dinner which included cutting up meat and veggies for chef salad. Now that I list it all out it doesn't seem like much but at least I accomplished something.

We watched The Biggest Loser Finale last night and I was happy that a woman finally won! I was amazed when they each got up to weigh at how motivated they were to continue no matter when they had gotten voted off.

This is Phia's favorite thing to play with. She likes the empth one because she can munch and crunch it. It is just an empty wipe bag from the hospital. They can have such fun with the simplest things!

We are trying to get her to learn how to drink out of her sippy cup. She is just my laid back little munchkin and I think that even when she can do something, if she doesn't have to she won't. She was fiddling with the cup and then realized she needed to tip it and so she did and was getting water and then couldn't figure out how to get it to stop and so she got all wet. She then proceeded to turn her cup upside down and suck on the bottom.

I have realized how laid back she is as I have tried to get her to roll over. I go get her in the morning out of her crib and she is rolled to her stomach sometimes. On Sunday she was laying on our bed and she was rolling over and then back to her back and then she would roll again and roll right back because she keeps one of her arms under her. She did finally take her arm out and then she cried. If I try to get her to roll over, forget it...if she wants to she will go right ahead.

On Saturday my mom watched Delphia so Shane and I could get away. We went to lunch at Applebees and then just kinda wandered without the Phi. We went to See's, Barnes and Noble and over to the mall. I decided that Phia needed some sunglasses for walks and just going outside. She looks so cute in them but likes to hold them and chew on them more than let them keep the sun out. We have to put them on her and distract her with a toy until she forgets about them. She wore them to Costco on Saturday and then to Walmart and every would stop and say how cute she was and point her out to their spouse or kids. We also ended up buying her Jam Berry at B&N. It is one of my favorite books and I have never actually owned it. We also went to the library and got some books, mostly for Phia. It's funny how you have a kid and everything revolves around them. We love to buy things for her and we sure missed her while we were out but she had a great time with Grandma and Grandpa. We came back to get her and my mom had combed her hair down and put some gel in it, but it was still sticking up in places.

This is her favorite past time while I check my e-mail or balance the checkbook. She loves to play with the keyboard, especially the cord.

Tonight we are going to Girls Night Out on our street from 7-9. Shane will come and get her by 7:30. It should be fun.

Tomorrow we are going to my mom's to visit and Ashley, Ruby and Emma are coming over also.
