Nicknames and Knick-Knacks

Time for an update on little Waverly! She is growing so much and changing every day. At six weeks old, she can return a smile and it just warms my heart. She is a comical little character, really laughing and smiling. She enjoys watching her stuffed animals while she's hanging out on the changing table (it makes changing her clothes a lot smoother, too!). She is learning that she can make sounds, too. She will scream and shout, just having a good time! Mommy and Daddy nicknamed her "Squeaker" ever since she was born, because she makes the cutest little sounds, almost like a kitten. Now her kitten noises are getting louder, but she is living up to her name - Little Squeaker!

Laughing it up!

Her shirt says "I know my finger is small... but daddy is still wrapped all around it!"

I think that's what she was laughing about!

Ready to Rock N' Roll.

Waverly is sporting all her Harley gear in this picture, including little Harley booties.

Waverly has several nicknames, such as Sugars (her Daddy tends to call her this most of the time), honey, dear, love, and baby. I catch myself always saying "Hi Baby" to her. I am trying to call her Waverly more so she will learn her name! One of her nicknames is Scooter. She is living up to this one, too, as she can now use the heels of her feet to scoot herself from one end of the changing table all the way to the other end. I had to fold a blanket to put at the end of it so she wouldn't bonk her little head.

I love my bouncy chair!

Waverly is learning to hold her head up for longer each time, trying to get a good look around at what's going on. She is strengthening those muscles and she is so strong!

Waverly is learning new things every day. She loves to watch Crissy and Axel, even if they are just sitting around. When they get in her view, she will stare them down and giggle when they move around.

Crissy - the Boppy Pillow thief!

Sharing...

Otherwise, Waverly is doing really well at learning to sleep longer through the night. Last Friday night, she slept from 10:30 PM till 5:30 AM. I was ecstatic! She is staying on this schedule, sleeping for about 6 hours at a time each night.

More to come!
