More Summer Fun


Summer is going by too fast. I can't believe July is half over. I will be back at school in no time. I love teaching but I love this little girl more. Someday we will be home together all the time. Fingers crossed. This week we had fun going to the library, running errands, going for walks and swimming with friends. She has summer goals to sleep in her own bed (check), settle herself to sleep (getting better but not consistent), and sleep through the night (not even close). But a little at a time. I am the worst cuz I love to cuddle her and make her feel all better. I know I am enabling her but I am weak. Regardless we are having a great time.
Georgia had a little photo shoot yesterday. She was given a bunch of headbands and bow/flower clips from her prospective mother-in-law to be so I finished making her the flowers I bought for her headbands and we decided to try them out. Our camera is no where near what Nana or Myhoa's cameras are but we had fun playing around. Hopefully she will get a real photo shoot in August. Georgia is growing so quickly it makes me excited and sad at the same time. She is rolling over and laughing more. She tries to pick her head up when she is laying on her back, holding her own bottle, eating some solids like cereal, carrots and cookies. I feel like she'll be asking to barrow the car in no time. It is really nice to have family time together.

Gigi loves to look at herself in the mirror. I have no idea where she gets that from. Wink! Wink!


So happy for about two hours and then nap time. She is also getting a lot stronger at sitting up on her own. We have a bumbo chair that a friend has loaned us that is fabulous. But she is doing good without it too. She still will lean and fall over but she is getting so much better.

She holds herself up so well.

Her favorite pillow that she thinks is mommy when she is sleeping.

She has discovered that we have faces and that she needs to touch them and feel our mouths and noses. Sometimes gentle like this picture, sometimes not so gentle.

Still a chub chub, but I love it!!!
