Ketchup

When Peyton was a baby I was so diligent about updating this bad boy frequently... like most of her milestones were written about day of, if not then next day or so. Poor Jovie is already getting a little shafted... I blame her and her bad sleeping habits though. You brought it on yourself kid. ;) I am a night person and usually do my blogging then and she is really hampering my style. Anywho... I am doing a bit of a catch up post here just to have things that have happened written about. And, to give myself some credit she is barely 3 weeks old today, so really I am not THAT far behind.

AND.... with 2 kids I really haven't "done" a lot. We've gone to a handful of appointments. Jovie weighs about 8lbs 5 oz now. And I forgot her height... whoops. And Peyton weighs 30 lbs (68th%) and about 38 inches (90th %). We've also gone to the grocery store, good ole' Walmart, a few eating places (I still lack the desire, energy what have you to cook and clean) and have seen and played with cousins. I am getting more and more brave and think we will start getting out again here soon.

We went out one night, and one of my friends brought these cute newborn beanies (I think she made them) and since we in Cali had been having an extremely cold season... it came in handy.

 

Peyton LOVES little sister because she gets to sit in the fun part of the cart now.

Today... 1-21-2013 her yuckster belly button thingy fell off... happy day. Here it is in all it's gory um I mean glory.

She had her first sponge bath on Wednesday January 9th... and just like in the hospital hated every moment of it until I washed her hair. Then it was insta-calming and she seemed to thoroughly enjoy it. Once that was done, so was she. Peyton "helped" of course. Peyton actually helps with everything... diapers, blankets, nursing, you get the picture.

 

 

Looking pretty tore-up mom, but trying to "be in the picture"

 

Maybe my other child should be the one getting a bath? Peyton covered in spaghetti sauce.

 

But, she basically sleeps all. the. time. Just not in her bed. Why?! So, for now, she is my bed buddy and sleeps between Wes and I... that is for a whole other post. And, she is a stomach sleeper... so during the day she naps (fantastically) on her belly... she does pretty good at nights as long as she is on us, or in our bed... even on her back. As I said before she HATES being swaddled... her hands have to be by her face, which is pretty cute. Oh, and she does pretty good sleeping on her side too.

 

 

 Lovin' that these cheeks are cute, chubby and super-duper soft.

Don't worry there is much more to come too.
