Just a-Swinging

Waverly loves the new porch swing at Mamaw and Papaw's. Mamaw brought out a couple of cushions and then Papaw got Waverly all comfy. They stayed on the swing for the longest time, just a-swinging.

Waverly loves to be outside. She likes to look at all of Mamaw's flowers and plants.

It didn't take long for Waverly to go to sleep. She took a little snooze while Mommy and Daddy visited with Papaw and Mamaw took care of her pretty flowers and the garden. We had such a nice time and Waverly was sleeping so well, we were all sad to go. Good thing we live right next door! I know that swing will be getting a lot of use!

Oh, the weekend

Oh really, more pictures?

This weekend was really quite nice. Waverly and I spent a quiet Friday night, with a nap and then some playtime. She loves new textures, especially her soft bear and crinkly rattles.

On Saturday, Mamaw Gail came over and Waverly and I got to keep her for the whole day! We played and read books. During nap time, mom and I devoted some time to cleaning up the house and visiting with each other. Later, we had a late lunch at Frishes, where Waverly helped us decide on desert. Time flies when you have good company!

Daddy was out of town for most of this weekend and Waverly and I missed him a lot. He was working in the garage on Sunday, so we went outside for a little visit. Poor little Waverly tuckered out fast! Here are pictures of her, fast asleep on some seats that Dean was replacing.

Look my way

Waverly is such a morning person! She must get it from her
grandparents,
because Mommy and Daddy prefer sleeping in! She was all grins and giggles this morning. She loves "talking" and is getting really good at it. She will babble away the whole time we are getting ready, sometimes even carrying on during the car ride to day care. Its prime entertainment.

The center of attention!

Waverly loves her new hair bow! We thank our friend Roxy for sharing with us all of her cute things.

Waverly has been doing great, as always. She is learning new things every day and still surprises her parents with how smart she can be. She is trying to sit up in her bouncy chair now and will even grab the toy bar to help pull her self. She just can't quite get there, though its still too early I think for her to be sitting up.

She is getting better with her cereal and seems to really enjoy it. The trick is to get to her before she gets too hungry and then she will take it from a spoon. Otherwise, she will let you know to feed her right now! She is very determined to get what she wants.

Waverly is doing well at day care and is finally sleeping consistently in her crib. She is such a happy baby and will just smile at everyone. This morning, she was the center of attention. The little girls wanted to see her with her hair bow and the big girls even came over to say hi. Waverly told them all she was good in her sweet little way "I good!" and then smiled at everyone.

Mommy still visits Waverly every day at lunch time. Its the highlight of my day. She is always happy too see me and spend a little quality time together. We look forward to the weekend for plenty of playtime with her daddy!

Tiny Toes

All Happy!

Yesterday, Daddy taught Waverly all about her feet. She was so funny! Once she got a good look at them, she would grunt in frustration until she could make her hand get there to touch them. She is so smart!

I got it!

Reaching for my toes!

Since Waverly has now found her feet, we figure it wont be long before she is trying to put them in her mouth! So, I decided that it was time to paint those baby toes! I waited until she was sleeping, but even then our little squeaker is a wiggler. Now her little toes are painted a pearl pink. Adorable!!!

Last night, we visited with the family at Mamaw and Papaw's house. Uncle Josh held Waverly for the first time. It was very sweet!

Making Joshy laugh...

Waverly, all dolled up this morning.

So sweet, and only a little mischievious.

Little Bites

A tired Mommy and Waverly

For the past couple of days, we have been giving Waverly a tiny bit of thin rice cereal. She has mostly taken it from a bottle, but only after we have offered it to her on a spoon first. You just can't feed her fast enough with a spoon! However, last night, she did really well and took all of her cereal (not much, mind you) by spoon. She really wants to play with the spoon while eating, so I guess we will invest in a few spares so she can have her own spoon to hold. She is going to be very independent, I think!

What a mess!



Time for bed... Playing cat and mouse games and trying to
trick mommy into thinking I am out for the night. Ha!



Now sleeping like a baby.

My Sunshine!!!
