Love.This.Girl

Little Bean came for a visit again this past weekend. I love her!! She is such a fun age - so snuggly and starting to interact. She's just over 3 months now.

Erik is so good with her though he is terrified of her spitting up breast milk. She has gotten into this licking phase. We were shopping with her and she licked my shoulder the entire time!!! Erik wasn't so excited when I passed her off to him and she proceeded to lick his t-shirt. I think it's super cute though - who doesn't love a little baby tongue?

This girl LOVES her sling. She loves being wrapped up and going for walks. When she is cranky or won't go down for a nap I just throw her in the sling and we go for a little jaunt around the neighborhood. When it is extra warm we just walk around my basement suite as it is nice and cool.

Sawyer has been standing for a while now (when you hold her arms). When you hold her around the chest she just wobbles and plays with her arms, but when you hold her hands she automatically pulls them into her mouth. It is super cute. It's a little game we like to play. I think it hilarious seeing someone so short standing up - she reaches just above my knees. It is amazing how quickly her neck has strengthened. She used to bobble a lot, but that went away so fast.

Her mommy just got her a Bumbo. She adores it. She loves being upright unless she is really sleepy. She always snuggles upright and has recently taken to preferring facing outward when she is awake as she likes to know what is going on in the world.

K. Look at her chubby sweetness. I love her rolly polly arms. And her cheeks that dangle below her little pointy chin. And I love all her cute clothes. Who knew it would be so fun to dress up a baby? I secretly prefer onesies to anything else.... Summer is a little too warm for those though. That's why sleepovers are the best - I get to snuggle with her in onesies. Delightful.

And of course, smiles for Auntie. Man, she is cute. I can't wait to get pictures of her and Maelle together. Maelle's hands and feet are longer than Sawyer's. It's hilarious. Sawyer's are like little dimpled sausages compared Maelle's are these long gangly things. Very cute.

PS. I will write about Milena's labour and Maelle's birth in the near future. I am between night shifts right now and do not have the energy at the moment.
