Sleeping

She has started cooing and making noises and answering a lot more lately. She LOVES to smile and when she sleeps, she likes to have her head in the blanket, and just like mommy, she's got to have her feet out! LoL! She's so funny. She's doing a lot better now that she's on her cereal and seems to be taking it really well in her bottle at night. Anyway...just a short update. Had to tell about her sleeping! LoL! She's such a little character.

Intrduction of cereal

The last few days have been hell in this house. It's been hard on all of us with no explanation as to why except that she was just NOT happy. I was talking to a friend of mine today who asked if she was sitting up. She's considered a supported sitter. Well yes, she's been able to sit for a little while now. Then she said that she should be eating cereal. SO sure enough, pediatrician said the same thing. So I get her some cereal. You want to talk about an absolute turn around from the last few days? She's smiling and wiggling and talking. She's got a full tum tum and she's a happy baby now! LoL!

And on the other note, now I feel like an absolute idiot because I was supposed to introduce cereal when she started holding her head up and I didn't know! I didn't have a clue! My poor little girl has been hungry this whole time and I've just been giving her more and more formula when all she needed was some cereal. UGH! And my sister-in-law said something to me about when she started her children on cereal. I should have called my pediatrician before now. She's so much happier after putting cereal in 1 bottle! I can't believe the difference! I can't believe I didn't do this before now! :-(

Secret Services?

So my dogs have recently been compared to the Secret Services. T-man is the little one that stands right next to my little girl and growls at you for coming too close while Symph is the big one in the back ground patiently waiting for you to make your move before she rips your skin off for thinking about touching her. The one you really need to be leery of. You know, the one with the finger on the trigger of the gun, that will give her life to protect and serve. It's a pretty amazing feeling with the both of them around her. I thought for a bit they would be jealous, but they are both the most protective dogs you will ever see. Symph went from puppy to protector the instant my daughter came through the door. And it's so funny, the first time I set her on the floor Symph was scared to death she was gonna hurt her. She looked at the bouncy chair and sat down. I had to tell her it was okay and so she reached in and sniffed. My daughter squeaked and she backs up and sits back down. Once she figured out that she wouldn't hurt her, she went into instant protect mode. So if you come to my house...watch out for the Secret Services. :-)
