The excitement of Marlie's first Thanksgiving and Christmas has got me in a tizzy with preparations for her baptism and hosting family for the holidays. I realized I was slacking on the journal-writing and picture-taking, but I got just enough content for this week's baby log:
Marlie has a nice layer of new growth on her bald head. I guess I can stop covering her head with pink hats so strangers can stop calling her "cute, little guy." I know she is happy about that (she hates hats)!
She is making progress on rolling over. She just gets her arm stuck underneath her and can't complete the rotation...we're working on that.
She has added sitting up to her "to-do list." I watch her and her daddy practicing leaning forward and balancing and think about her walking out the door for her first day of school, her first date, for college...*sniff*
She is getting better at napping in the daytime, still wants to be swaddled at night.
She is such a vocal baby! She coos, babbles, and just "talks" a blue streak except when she is having a bowel movement...she gets really quiet, blinks rapidly and sticks out her tongue. I call it her "poo face."
We won a weehuggers AIO bamboo cloth diaper from the blog Newly Wed Newly Bred. I have to admit the all-in-one is very convenient and bamboo is a great material for cloth diapers (naturally absorbent and antibacterial).
Her grandmother arrived yesterday, which means...I got an extra pair of hands for diaper changes, and I can get some sleep! Hooray for granny Marge!
Gosh, she is getting SO big. I love it when they start 'talking'! All that cooing and baby babble. It is so much fun! You and Damon are gonna have a blast with her at Christmas!
Please give her a big ole hug and smooch from me, K?
Hello! Just wanted to say I found you through the Blog Rollers, and I'm loving your site. I'm still a new blogger so its great learning from folks like you.
I hope you don't mind, I added your button to my site!
love the details....even though I don't know you, I am totally enthralled and feel the warmth of your love and the joy of babies. Would love to see a video, especially of poo face!
Grandmas are the best. Mine is arriving on T-Day and The Mister and I are looking forward to having a date night.
I love the few AIO diapers I have (except when it comes time to dry them).
My husband told me that Lewis rolled over yesterday! He flipped himself and promptly started crying LOL. I'm sad that I missed it. He almost did it for me this morning during tummy time, but he was a little too focused on putting his fist in his mouth.

"poo face" cracked me up
She is so beautiful! You are so lucky to have Grandma there. They are such a big help.

Hey - Now, I KNOW I was already a 'FOLLOWER' but somehow it did not show me as one. That is REALLY weird!

That is a priceless photo. Make sure you get one with all four of you for the 3 generation shot. Tell Granny "Hi" and enjoy Ms. Baby Powder!
Yeah for grammies! Yeah for a little sleep! She really is beautiful!
