Snow Storm

 We had a blizzard hit OKC Feb. 1, 2011~
No school for me and the girls...no work for Brandon...so we just holed up in our warm house.  Laynie had started throwing herself back, so that you can lay her upside down for a few seconds.  So Brandon started doing "Flippies" with her, turning her in full circles.  She loves that!  She'll throw her head back to do more!  She was also sick all day yesterday (vomiting) poor girl!  Runny nose~ yuck!  This morning (2/3) She was able to keep milk down.  

It's supposed to get to 23 degrees today, so hopefully we can take the big girls sledding.  The wind has kept the temperature to zero or below.  The first day, everyone went out in it...Brandon to shovel, and we girls to play... didn't last long with the blowing wind.  Yesterday, only Maycie played a long time outside...I could handle about 15 minutes. 

Sitting pretty

Laynie eating her toes.

2/1 We also caught Laynie trying to eat her toes, and she's doing really well sitting supported.  She loves her Bumbo too, and plays with toys on her tray.  She's been eating cereal and pears, green beans, and peas. We started her on cereal at 4 months, and now she's eating more solids.
She really likes her Exersaucer and her floor gym.  She doesn't like her swing anymore.  She's getting used to a bouncer that you hang in the doorway.  She still loves songs and to be tickled. She notices the little details on her toys.  She also plays with her hands.  She's starting to smile and laugh at peek-a-boo.  Rylee and Hailee love playing with her...they'll take her and go :).  When she's sitting with me, she likes to lay her cheek against mine.  She smiles and laughs...she's kind of loud  haha.  She's listening to books longer and touching the pages.  When she eats her cereal, she grabs the spoon, like she's feeding herself.
