Ryan and I went on our first real vacation without Kylie for 3.5 days (July 1 - July 4 (1/2day))  She did excellent with Grama and Papa Bosie!  Better than what mommy expected.  She did well adjusting to us as well when we got back.  We tried to wean her, but she just wouldn't have it, so we are going to slowly cut out nursing sessions since we are wanting to get pregnant with #2 and I do not want to tandem nurse if possible.

Kylie's 2nd 4th of July!  She did excellent, she wasn't afraid of the fireworks like I thought she would be.  She kept saying "wow" when they would explode.  Hahaha.

She is throwing more and more "terrible 2" tantrums lately and her biggest words lately are NO and MINE.  *SIGH*  We are dealing with it the best we can ;-)  She is also getting frustrated more easily when she can't do something. 

We are still struggling with her sleeping through the night, she won't do it.  ROFL.  But we are working on it and Ryan is helping out more and more in the sleep department.  So far Kylie is nursing right before bed and then once in the middle of the night.  Hopefully that will continue.  She is not nursing at all during the day unless she gets sick or REALLY needs the comfort.

I had to go on my first overnight business trip this month and Kylie did very well with her daddy.  It was his first time with her all alone too :-)

Kylie is really big into "castles" this month.  So she tries to make a castle out of anything she can find.  Needless to say we have 3 chairs in our living room with a blanket over it right now and that's her castle!

Kylie spent another night with Grama and Papa to get ready for mom and dad's vacation away from her.  She did very well again.

Not much has been going on this month.  Kylie is repeating everything you say so you have to watch it.  Otherwise we've been very busy with the basement and Kylie has been a big helper with that. 

Kylie did get diagnosed with a urinary tract infection which we are giving her antibiotics for.  :-(

She seems to be growing like a weed too!

Kylie spent her first night away from mommy and daddy on May 1st.  She did very well spending the night.  She woke up 3 times but my mom quickly got her back to sleep.  I came at 7 am the next morning and she didn't seem like she missed me at all, lol.  Poor mommy and daddy :-(  She'll stay there a few more times to *prepare* for when she's away from us for a few days while we are on our trip in July.

She also came down with a tiny stomach bug that same weekend.  She woke up throwing up, threw up one more time and was fine the rest of the time.  She didn't each much solids, though, until Monday.  Poor baby!  Thank goodness she is still nursing because I think the stomach bug would have been worse if not and she could have gotten severely dehydrated.  Breast milk was the only thing she seemed to be able to keep down.

On the 16th, Ryan and I took Kylie to see Sesame Street Live!  We even bought front-row seat tickets.  I thought Kylie would be more excited than she was, but I think I set high hopes, lol.  She did enjoy it and kept yelling Ernie and Elmo.  The characters came right down in front of us quite often, it was neat!  Ryan and I really enjoyed the show too.  We hope to take her to see the Wiggles in August!  Mommy can't wait, she's in love with Anthony.  Hehehehe.

Kylie has been saying tons of new words.  It's amazing.  She'll say "mom, I'm coming" or "go to Terri's".  She's starting to understand feelings now.  She can tell you *sometimes* when she is hurting, tired, sad. It's so neat!   She's been counting to 10 for a few months now, although she sometimes gets the numbers mixed up. 

She knows all the sounds to animals which is so cute! 

May 24th was the first day Kylie went to the sitter with only whole milk (hormone-free) and no breastmilk.  Sniff, sniff.  She seems to be nursing a bit more since we did that, but it's only been a couple of days.

Happy Memorial Day everyone! (May 31st)

Kylie continues to expand her vocabulary!  It's amazing! 

This month we got to visit with some ladies from the breastfeeding board I frequent.  This is our second visit and it was so much fun!  Kylie and I also got to go to our friend Jennifer's baby shower, which was fun too. 

We had a great Easter as well!  Ryan and I took Kylie to an Easter egg hunt on Saturday the 10th at Knight's Action Park.  She got to color, hunt for eggs and she got a face tattoo and a balloon.  Unfortunately the face tattoo was stuck on her face for seven days!  YIKES!  That didn't look good in her Easter pics ;-)  It was a frog and every time Kylie would look at it in the mirror she would freak out.  LOL.  Easter day she woke up and went into the living room to see what the Easter bunny left her and she saw her basket and her eyes lit up and the first thing she said was "WOW"!  LOL.  That was the first time we'd heard her say that.   She got a lot of neat things from the bunny.  Her beautiful purple wicker basket included:  beach puzzle, Winnie The Pooh Bubble set, sidewalk chalk, pinwheel, a pretty little nightgown, chocolate bugs, an egg with her name on it, some eggs with money in them, a travel magna doodle, and I think that's it, lol.  Later on Easter Sunday, Ryan's family came over and the kids had an Easter egg hunt.  Kylie seemed to have a blast with the kids. We had a great cook-out too that day.

Kylie is still teething with her two year molars.  Those things are just beating her up.  I hope it won't be long and those teeth will be in and we won't have to deal with them anymore.

She looks like she is getting taller and slimmer but I honestly have not weighed or measured her height this month.  It seems like it's staying about the same as at her 18 month visit.  Most breastfed babies slow down at 6 months.  Kylie did not, so I'm assuming she's going to do that now.  She's wearing 2T and most things in 3T and wearing Huggies Pull-up diapers in size 2-3T.  We gave up on regular diapers because she wiggled too much, the pull-ups are great for resolving that issue! 

She's been interested in the potty off and on, but nothing firm.  She has peed in the potty once but she didn't know what she did.  I'm assuming she's going to be a slow trainer in this area ;-)

Kylie is now getting more whole milk than she is breast milk at the sitter.  We decided that we would slowly transition her to whole milk because I seem to be producing less and less milk for the pump.  It makes me sad but I know all things end eventually.  By the end of May she will be solely on whole milk at the sitter and nursing when she is with me.  Who knows when she'll give that up ;-) LOL.

We took Kylie to her first Henson Robinson Zoo trip this month.  It was very disappointing, not as big as it was when we were kids.  There weren't as many animals there.  She did like feeding the fish, but was scared of most of the other animals. 

Oh wow, Kylie is just saying words so fast I can't right them down.  I can't even begin to explain the amount of words she knows now and says.  She will repeat everything so you have to watch what you say.  She hasn't said a bad word *yet*, though.  So that's good.

Kylie got a new bedroom outfit this month, so she is sleeping in a full size bed now, with mommy of course, lol.  She does so good getting in and out of her bed.  We bought a step stool and Ryan painted it so she can get up and down out of bed easier. 

She's eating solids very well.  She likes to eat fruit whole now, not cut up.  She's eating more veggies and seems to love peas now, whereas before she didn't like them too much.  Kylie is doing very well with fork and spoon, too.

At her 18 month well-baby visit, she weighed in at 28 pounds 13 ounces and 34 inches tall.  She's almost 3 feet now, lol.

Ryan worked very hard this month to set up an area for Kylie to have her swing set/jungle gym.  Kylie just loves it!  She loves throwing the rocks in her play area too :-)

The weather is starting to get nice so I can't wait to put Kylie in dresses more.  We are playing outside a lot more now, which is nice.  We were cooped up too long because of winter weather.

Kylie is nursing less and less than she did just even a month ago.  She's down to nursing before I go to work, right before bed, and then maybe one to 2 times in the middle of night. She sometimes nurses one or two more times on the weekend, but that's about it.  She's saying NO a bit more when I offer to nurse.  And instead of saying she wants to "snuggle" to nurse (which is our code word) she is now yelling "SIDE!"  when she wants to breastfeed.  LOL.  All this time I was trying to teach her to say snuggle and she decides to say SIDE! instead.  Hehehehe.  She's also getting about 10 ounces of pumped breastmilk and 3 ounces of whole milk at the sitters each day. 

She got 2 2-year molars in this month, poor baby.  She may even have more, but she won't let me see in her mouth.

Kylie is also climbing EVERYTHING! 

Well, I'm sure there is more I could say, but I will save it for a later day.

Show Kylie a sheep and she will tell you "baaa".  Ask her what sound a sheep makes and she doesn't know.  LOL!  She is so interested in animals right now!  Ryan and I got her some animal puzzles for Valentines Day and she loves to play with them.  She can match up the animal puzzle piece with the picture of the animal.  She is getting so smart!  We were so shocked when she did that.  She knew exactly where each piece went. 

Our favorite word this month that Kylie is saying is "Tur-toll" for turtle.  It is so cute.  Her bedroom decor is bugs, turtles, butterflies, etc.  So she points at the turtle and keeps saying tur-toll.  She just melts our hearts!

Other words she's saying are: hey, you, mine, apple, rock, kcake (pancake).  She is also saying "I pee" or "I poop" either before she goes in her diaper or right after she goes in her diaper.  I guess she's starting to become aware of her bodily functions. Hehehehe.  I'm sure it's too soon for potty training though, but we are headed in the right direction ;-)

Kylie is just amazing us every day.  She seems to be learning new words at maximum speed!  She's making our heads turn!  LOL!  We are having so much fun with her.  She likes to take Cinderella's food over to her and she likes to "fake" water the plants for mommy.  She is becoming quite the little helper.  Sometimes too much, hehehehe.

We started a new bedtime routine at the end of January which has made life a lot better for Ryan, Kylie and I.  She has become a happier child now that she is getting much more sleep and starting to sleep a bit more at night. Some nights she still wakes to nurse every 2 hours and other nights she'll go 3,4 or even 5 hours before waking to nurse again. 

We tried whole milk with Kylie on February 7th, and she did not like it.  She took one sip and through the cup done.  Haha.  So we tried flavoring it with strawberry syrup and she still didn't like it, so we tried chocolate flavored syrup and still no go.  We are in no big hurry for her to drink it, so we'll try again some other time.

Some more words towards the end of the month she started saying are:  papa, more, fox, pig, sit, bed, shoe, rock, book, Terri and much much more.  I can't even keep up with her she is saying so many new ones and uses lots of the regularly. 

Kylie also started getting her right bottom 2 year molar in.  Ouch!  We suspected she was teething and sure enough she is.  It's been bothering her at night most.  Hope they come in soon!

Last but not least, Kylie went and visited Gama and Papa Bosie on February 29th and Kylie caught her first pet....a willy worm.  Papa even put it in a jar (with air holes in the lid) so Kylie could bring it home to show us.  Needless to say the willy worm passed on the next day.  But she won't stop saying "bug, bug, bug".  Hehehe.  I think she is going to be more of a tom-boy than a girly girl.  I think we are headed for trouble.  LOL!

Wow!  What a month!  Kylie has battled tonsillitis off an on all month!  Poor baby.  We finally got it under control and gone by the end of the month! 

One thing that Kylie is doing that is really amazing me is that she can separate blocks by their shape.  She has shape colored blocks that go into a shape sorter.  She gets frustrated and if they are not all circle-shaped she gives up and takes the lid of and puts them in the bucket.  Hehehehe.  But she will put all the circle shapes in there and then all the square and then all the triangle ones.  It's so neat and we never taught her or asked her to put all of one kind in there first.  YAY!

Ryan is thrilled, and so am I, because Kylie is saying "Da da" like CRAZY now!  It is so cute.  She follows him around and says "da da", "hi da da" with the biggest smile on her face.  I am so glad she finally is saying his name all the time.  I'm sure daddy is on cloud nine now ;-)

Ask Kylie what sound a cow makes and she will promptly blurt out "Moooooo".  It's so cute.  She is starting to understand animals and is always pointing to them and asking what they are.

Kylie is saying new words all the time.  Some of her latest words are:  teeth, pig, papa, bath, hot, ouch, whoa and shhhhh. 

She is just growing so much every day and she just keeps a smile on our face.  We are so amazed at how this little person grows and we just love her so much :-)

Kylie is now sleeping in my old day bed I had as a teen :-)  Well, she sleeps some of the night alone in it and I sleep the rest of the night in there with her on it.

Where does the time fly?  This Christmas was Kylie’s second Christmas.  We thought she was going to be more into opening gifts, the excitement and such, but she really wasn’t.  She wouldn’t have even noticed if she hadn’t gotten a ton of gifts.  She of course got spoiled by everyone including Santa J  We tried several times to take her to see Santa and every time she got real scared, holding on to mommy for dear life and shaking her head and saying “no, no”.  It was so cute to see and hear her say that, of course we would ask her if she wanted to see Santa many times, lol. 

Kylie is still walking on her tippy toes. I guess she will be a ballerina when she grows up ;-)  Doctor showed us some exercises to do with her feet and told us to keep an eye on it.  If she is still walking this way at 2 or 2.5 years of age then surgery or some other kind of correction will need to be done.

She’s still nursing every two hours at night and quite a bit when I’m with her and taking 10 to 15 ounces of EBM at the sitter still.  Her latest thing is to tug on my shirt and go “uh, uh, uh” when she wants to be nursed.  It is so cute.   She hasn’t been sick since July, either; knock on wood, until December 5^th when she developed tonsillitis.  She’s been fighting it off and on all month so we took her to doctor and got her some medicine. 

Kylie and mommy are still co-sleeping most of the night, too J  Since daddy was away this month on business for the better part of two weeks Kylie has gotten very attached to me.  Mommy has been sleeping with her lots more. 

She’s eating more and more than she used to and getting better with a spoon and bowl.  She is still having a bit of a time with the fork, though.  Mealtime is very messy J  I can’t wait until she learns to use the bowl and utensils better, lol. 

Kylie is learning more and more on how to throw a temper tantrum, but we help her through her frustration so they don’t last very long.  She is also starting to repeat more words we say J 

She is getting familiar with body parts:  eyes, nose, feet, mouth.  She can say feet and can point to them and her nose, but the eyes, mouth and ears we are still working on.

She is still continuing to grow beyond our expectations, lol.  She weighed in at 26 pounds 11 ounces and 33 inches in length at her 15 month well-baby visit. 

Kylie is wearing a size 24 months to 2T in clothes and she has been in Pampers pull-up diapers for walkers and they are a size 2T/3T.

We found a sippy cup that she absolutely loves and we love them because they don’t make messes and she is really mastering a straw.

Kylie is really becoming such a loving child.  She just absolutely loves giving kisses to us and the closet mirror and whoever/whatever else will let her kiss them.  She is constantly hugging us, too.  We just love this new milestone.

Our baby is not a baby anymore, she's already 14 months old.  I long to hold her in my arms like I used to.  She doesn't like to be cradle held like she used to.  <SIGH> 

Well, Kylie is still walking on tippy toes, lol.  She got her first pair of Stride Rite tennishoes on November 1st!  She looks so cute in them, but she still wears her Robeez as well.  We are using the child-safety gates a lot now to keep her in eye's way ;-) 

She's still nursing and still getting up every 2 hours to nurse through the night.  My outlook is...she's gotta sleep someday, right?  LOL.  She is taking a lot less EBM at the sitter now, about 12 ounces, so I only pump 2x at work instead of 3.

She is growing like a weed!  She is 25 pounds 8 ounces and 32.5 inches long!  She is growing out of her birthday clothes at a rapid pace!!!!!  Thank goodness Christmas is just around the corner, hahaha.

Gym and Swim class is great!  Kylie is still a bit of a meanie, she still pushes kids down in class and thinks she rules the room, LOL.  It is a blast, though, and Ryan and I are enjoying watching her interact with other kids even if it means seeing her push them down.  One night in class she went over and hugged a 16 month old girl and then immediately shoved the girl down.  Ahhhhh, that's my Booga!

Thanksgiving was great!  She really showed her lovingness towards her cousin, Ellie :-)  They kept hugging each other.  She got a nice little boo boo on her left forehead a few days before Thanksgiving when she fell out of her lazyboy chair.  *SIGH*  It was a huge boo boo at first and scared me to death!  But she was fine ;-)

Kylie is 13 months old now!  Wow, time is flying by.  We have ventured down the road of extended nursing now!  WOW!  Kylie still nurses every two hours throughout the night, but still does not bother me ;-)

Her newest phrase this month is "Gonna go bye bye, hmm, hmm?"  It took me a while to figure out where she learned that one at, and then I realized I ask her that every morning before we leave for work.  LOL. 

We transitioned her from her crib to a toddler bed this month.  Although, her and I still co-sleep on a mattress on her floor at night, she spends a few hours every night in her toddler bed.  We are hoping that one day she will sleep most of the night in her own bed ;-)  She loves this new arrangement, though.  She can climb into her own bed like a big girl and get out when she wants to.  That can be good and bad, hahaha.

She is walking a lot better this month, but still walks on her tippy toes.  Not sure why, though, but her little legs get her where she wants to go and I guess that's what matters.  I know that going shopping is a much "busier" event than it used to be.  We spend a lot of time chasing her around now. 

Bless her little heart, Kylie learned how to give kisses this month.  This has been one of the favorite things about being a parent....the joy you get when your child loves you back.  I just love when she gives kisses, it makes my heart sink every time.  Now kisses are few and far between, daddy and I would take them every second but Kylie doesn't like giving them all the time.  She is just sooo precious!

Kylie started a "Gym and Swim" class at the local YMCA.  The idea of it is for them to play with other kids in a "gym" type setting and then we go to swimming lessons after that.  They should be a lot of fun!

Kylie turned 1 years old on the 7th!  Her birthday party was held on her birthday, Sunday September 7th.  It was a beautiful, sunny and warm day.  We had her party at Lincoln Park and had all of our family and friends there to share it with us.  We all want to thank everyone who shared in her special day with us!

Kylie seems to be changing more and more each month.  She is now going to bed at 8 p.m. every night.  She started that routine on her own, haha.  

She is walking more and more on her own and crawling less.  She still is not standing up by herself.  She has to crawl to something to pull up, but she'll get there soon :-)

Her cuspids (all 4) have been coming in slowly but surely.  So she is up to 12 teeth now!  

She's eating more and more solids and is now off of all bottles at the sitter, just on sippy cups!  YAY!  She is becoming such a big girl, but still likes her binky on occasion.

She's showing "other" sides of herself, the not-so-nice side where she is being mean to other kids, and she has also noticed that she can scream at the top of her lungs just because she can, haha.

She is saying so many words now and she even said "Hi dada" to Ryan on the phone this month when he was out of town on business. He was so excited about that. 

Oh, and she has learned to open doors!  Oh no!  Hahaha.  We have to be even more careful now and we've even put up gates to block off the great room from all other rooms so we can keep tabs on her.

Kylie turned 11 months old on the 7th of August.  This month has been crazy!!!! We have been planning for Kylie's 1st birthday and party.  

Kylie has also changed a lot this month.  People are starting to say that they see more of Ryan in her, which I totally agree.  She still has my "attitude", though, haha.

The most exciting thing this month is Kylie started walking with a push-ride walker.  Jim and Jen Horvath had bought her a walker for Christmas, but it seemed to scare her, so we decided to try a new one.  We found one that was very sturdy and cute.  The first time we gave it to her she immediately started walking around with it.  It was so cute, Ryan and I were about ready to cry, we were so excited.  By the middle of August she was walking with her other walker Jim and Jen got her.  That walker tips over easy and Kylie just needed to get the courage up to be able to use it.  Now she is a pro with both!

She also got her 2nd, 3rd, and 4th molars!  YUCK!  Those gave her a lot of trouble!  She won't even really let us look into her mouth, so we assume they are in now.

Kylie is also trying to say "snuggle" which comes out "uggle" as our "code word" for nursing in public.

Besides walking with a walker, Kylie is crawling faster than ever, getting into everything, cruising the furniture better and taking a few steps by herself between Ryan and I.

Kylie turned 10 months old on the 7th of this month!  So much has happened in July for all of us! Kylie started saying dada (gaga) and dog (gog) which she fine tuned those two words by the end of the month.  She has been babbling like crazy!  Haha.

We had our first family camping trip over the 4th of July holiday!  It was hot, but we had a blast!!!! We went to a Jellystone campground in Amboy, IL.  

Kylie is still nursing OFTEN (haha) we are trying to wean her off bottles and on to sippy cups.  We finally found a sippy cup she likes and she is now getting 3 bottles of EBM at the sitter and one sippy cup.

She is "cruising" the furniture like crazy!  Ryan says she will be walking by her birthday.  I'm not so sure :-)  

A few other things she has done this month is she started giving hugs to people.  Her first hug was to her cousin Kirsten.  She also got her 1st molar (her 9th tooth)!

Kylie turned 9 months old on the 7th of June.  Kylie now says kitty cat, mama, dada (still having trouble with this one), Bob (?), and book.  She is babbling more and more every day.

She is crawling and cruising all over the place.  We have to keep a very close eye on her! Ha Ha!

Kylie has tried several different new kinds of food.  She has tried mashed potatoes, turkey, bread, and various fruits.  She also tried black olives and pizza crust which she really liked.

We had to remove all breakables from the living room because she has gotten more curious.  We now have board books and plastic coasters on the coffee tables for her to play with.

She amazes me more and more every day.  She is such a happy baby!

Kylie turned 8 months old on the 7th of May.  She now have 8 teeth!  She have 4 on the top and 4 on the bottom.  She is trying all kinds of solid foods, but having problems digesting them so I don't get to have many right now.  She finished her swimming lessons at the end of May.  She missed the last session and missed another one due to an ear infection.  

She started crawling on May 30! At that same time she started standing up by pulling her self up on furniture.  Her favorite thing is to stand with her legs extended but her hands and head still on the floor.  What a goof!  

She is saying mama, baba (for bye bye) and trying to say dada and kitty cat.

April, 2003

Kylie turned 7 months old on the 7th of April.  I now have 6 teeth!  I have 4 on top that have broke through the skin and I have two down on the bottom that are really noticeable.  She can now bite and chew on biter biscuits, zwieback toast, carrots, celery, and anything else she can get her hands on.  She has tried carrots, sweet potatoes, squash, green beans, peas, pears, and applesauce to date.  She will get bananas and peaches next month.  She is still trying to drink mommy's milk from a juice box, but some of it still ends up on her and not in her mouth :)  She started swimming lessons on April 24 at the YMCA.  She will go for 7 weeks, one night a week.  Most of the babies in her "shrimp" class cried when they got in the water.  Kylie had no reaction.  She didn't cry, but was not smiling and laughing either.  

She started taking naps for us without us having to hold her to stay asleep.  She likes sleeping on her tummy and that seems to keep her asleep longer.  She is taking two naps a day for about 1 to 3 hours a piece. She is still waking every 2 hours at night to nurse and is taking 4 - 5 ounce bottles of mommy's milk at the sitter.

She is rolling over from her tummy to her back and her back to her tummy like crazy!  Still no crawling yet.  She loves to play with her toys and is starting to like the Baby Einstein videos.

She had fun on Easter.  Kylie and mommy went to her godfather's house for Easter.  Daddy went to a Cardinal baseball game in St. Louis.  She was pretty fussy most of the day so we didn't stay long at Curt's house.  She got to have a carrot and a "taste" of banana cream pie at his house and she took a brief nap there.  The rest of the day mommy and Kylie lounged around the house.  She was teething.

She is getting bigger every day and growing way too fast!  She has great motor skills and is very aware of everything in her surroundings!  

March, 2003

Kylie turned 6 months old on March 7!  She also had her well-baby visit that day at which time she was vaccinated.  She did better this time because I nursed her while she was getting them which made the pain much less than the last time.  Ryan and I had read that breastfeeding can be used as a "pain reliever".  So we decided that was what we were going to do this time around.  We were both so surprised that it worked so well!

At her well-baby visit, Kylie weighed 18 pounds 7 ounces and measured 28 inches long!  Our pediatrician told us that we could start solids, so on March 8 we tried out peas.  She liked them a lot better than the rice cereal, but unfortunately we had to stop giving them to her because she developed bad diaper rashes.  Our Dr. told us to wait a few weeks and then try again.  Otherwise Kylie is doing well as far as development.  

She has two teeth very well established and a third tooth is popping out slowly.  She has grown out of her infant carrier car seat so we had the painful task of shopping for a convertible car seat.  Finally found one mid-month!  Ha. Ha.  

Kylie has learned how to drink from a sippy cup with a straw.  She loves it!  

She is lifting her butt up when on her tummy and she is also sitting up really good.  Still with the help of a pillow, but doing good.  

She got her first swing ride at Grandpa Nation's this month, so daddy decided to put up a swing for her in our front yard.  She loves swinging!  It is finally getting nice outside to where we can get.         

Kylie is 5 months old this month!  She is becoming more alert these days!  Kylie weighs 18 pounds and is 28 inches long!  

She still nurses every two hours when with mommy and is taking bottles at daycare.  She still is not sleeping through the night and doesn't like to take naps unless being held.  She just loves her mommy and daddy too much, I guess.  

She found her feet early this month!  She grabs a hold of them and sometimes will eat them!  Ha.Ha.

Her second tooth popped up this month right next to the other one down below.  She was a little fussy when it was coming it, but for the most part did real well.  Her third tooth started to cut through late this month.  It just happens to be an eye tooth above, so this one is giving her a bit more trouble.

She really did not have too much excitement this month....she is starting to sit up on her own some with the help of a Boppy pillow.  She also sat up in a grocery cart for the first time in February.

She loves daycare and tends to come home from the sitters' every once in awhile with a new sound to make for us.
