Watch us grow!
Daddy had his first story time with Little Janie tonight and they cracked open the “Lord of the Rings” trilogy. Yep, he didn’t start with “The Adventures of Winnie the Pooh” or “Brown Bear, Brown Bear”. He chose “Lord of the Rings”. Janie looks like she’s thoroughly enjoying it so far.
Daddy got to feed Janie today for the first time.
The feeding was going so well that he decided to show off his skillz with a No-Hand Technique.
The Kumquat Alarm didn’t work very well this morning. She even tried to grab Daddy’s shirt. How cute!
This morning, Janie spent her morning Tummy Time propped up on Daddy’s tummy. She tolerated the activity a little longer than usual despite having the hiccups and got her head up pretty high several times. I think it’s so funny and cute when she works so hard that her eyes cross. She looks like a turtle when she has to concentrate that hard. It’s also funny that she likes to nom-nom on her sleeves during break time. Click here if you can’t see the video above.

Hi. I’m waiting ever so patiently for Daddy to wake up. I’ve got a present for him in my diaper. Heh heh.
Janie’s uncle, auntie, and grandpa came up to visit this weekend.
Mornings are the best time for Janie and Daddy to hang out. Unfortunately, Daddy’s always having to work but on the other hand, she’s becoming a pretty good early morning alarm and supervisor.
On Saturday afternoon, Janie’s umbilical cord stump fell off. We let it air dry for a couple days and had it checked by the nurse today during our weight check visit. She said it looked healed and that it was ok to give her a bath. Yay!
So tonight, we got the bath ready and it was time for a little soak in the warm water. We had a feeling she wouldn’t like it and we were right. She cried most of the time but actually calmed for a bit in the middle.
It was a really quick bath and I was surprised we were able to get a few photos taken of the “traumatic” experience.
She stopped crying immediately after she was taken out of the water and wrapped up in her towel. What a funny girl.
She was also pretty chill while Daddy put on her diaper and PJs. It was almost time for a feeding so we had to give her a pacifier too, which kept her satisfied until we were finished drying and dressing her.
Here she is about 30 minutes later after getting all cleaned and fed.
One of our favorite things to do is hanging out in bed together in the middle of the day. Doesn’t it look like she’s telling us a funny story? Love it.
Janie went on her first outing in the carrier today. It was 70 degrees and she was nuzzled in Daddy’s chest under a thin blanket the whole time. Mommy and Daddy got a nice long walk in the sunshine and Janie got a monster nap.
