Makayla Time!!

Here are some pictures from the last few days. Today we put her in adorable kiddie pool for the first time! She wasn't such a fan, but she'll get over that soon. I really want her to enjoy the water, since I never did as a kid. I'd love to take her to swimming lessons sometime in the near future.

She is sooooo good at sitting up on her own now! She's been doing it since she was about 3 1/2 months old, but now she's really good at it! 
 We are so proud of her! The pictures of her in the pool are from they day I hung out with my friend Holly. That was her first time in water other than the bathtub. She wasn't a fan. Duh. I think she's going to be crawling soon, but I've been known to be wrong about things she's going to do before, so I guess we'll just have to wait and see!! I also do believe that she is actually teething! 

The past couple days have been horrible with this little one! She's been screaming non stop and there is nothing that will calm her down! On Tuesday, she didn't take a nap all day and that was one long day for Mommy and Baby, let me tell ya! We had Adam's going away that day, even though he's going back to the same office as a civilian. It was hard going to Chevy's with a tired, tired baby....

Tonight I went out to dinner with  my friend, Sarah and as soon as I walked in the door, all I heard was Makayla screaming bloody murder. It was so sad! So anyway, teething tablets and Orajel have become my new best friends. We're likethis. 

So, that's what's happenin' around these parts. Getting geared up for the big move, even though I won't be here! I'm going home when my mom comes out here! I'm flying back to Ohio with her!! Yay!


It's gonna be interesting to see how Makayla does with all the traveling we will be doing when we're in Ohio. We have four families to visit and we won't be at one house for very long. On top of being in Ohio, we are going to visit my brother in Indiana! It's a pretty long drive, so we'll see how Makayla fares. She's a great baby, most of the time, though. I'm just worried about the sleeping situation, really because she doesn't do well unless she's in her own crib. My friend, Sarah, told me to take her dirty crib sheet with us to remind her of home. It sounds gross, but I think it'll work. 

Oh yeah, Makayla loves to play with my water bottle, that's why it's in the corner of one of the pictures. She also makes that super silly face all the time now and I'm so glad I finally caught it on camera! It's adorable!! And check out those super cute sunglasses! Not to mention the even cuter swimsuit! Ahhhh! I can't handle how adorably gorgeous my baby is!!! So precious!!!!!

Well, I've got some reading to do. Adam's gone for the night, so it's just me and my book! :)
