busy busy girl

 

Oh what a busy week its been.  Lizzie’s social calander was full this weekend.  She met her Great Grandma Janice, Aunt Jill, Cousins Finn and Greyson, and her godmother Shelly.  Also she got more presents, this child will never be naked.  Thanks Antie Erin for the cute hat and booties, pictured below.  

Thanks for the booties and hat Erin!

It was great being at Nana’s for most of the week. I was able to attempt to run and get some extra naps, which felt great.  Thanks so much again Linda and Joel!  

 

Last week the doctor waived all of the restrictions, so I can exercise and get Lizzie out of the house, weather permitting.  Hopefully this will help out her night/day confusion.  Actually, she has been sleeping very well throughout the night with intermittent feedings this past week.  Tim and I are thrilled!  Also, I had to get rid of diary in my diet, which seems to have helped her reflux and gas and is making me excited to get back to a healthier diet. However, I'm dreaming of cheese plates. 

She is smiling and cooing more and more everyday.  Her eye contact and focus have improved a lot too.  She can lift her head and turn it.  Big things are happening and we are so excited.  Of course, this means that she’ll loose some things too, which reminds us to enjoy every second. She is really starting to show her own unique personality!  

so pretty in her summer dress

I love the night time...

Passed out

What hates garlic and is awake primarily at night...Lizzie!  She is still confused about night vs. day and we are waiting patiently for her circadiam rhythm to kick in.  We've had the all night scream fests and the still and quiet wide awake nights.  However, this past week we had some great time in the wee hours of the morning.  I'm not sure if I should encourage this behavior, everyone says something different.  I do know that we had good play time and I enjoyed every sleep deprived moment of it.

Lizzie also had Mulrooney visitors today and yesterday.  Her Grandpa Mike is proud of her blue eyes and hoping they'll defeat the typically dominant browns from the Taylor side. 

Meeting more Family...

Social Life- Last week, Lizzie met her Uncle David and her "Auntie" Brooke.  They enjoyed the city and were a big help.  Lizzie also met the Bower family in Batavia where we all spent the weekend.  Finally we were all able to get much needed sleep.  Thank you Linda and Joel, Nana and Papa, for the relaxing weekend.  We were also able to have some social time in Batavia. 

Development- Lizzie is smiling!  She has the cutest smile and is beginning to coo.  Also she had a doctors appointment and is growing well, 50th percentile in weight and head circumference and 75th in her height.  She also had her second Hep B shot, which was probably more traumatic for me than anyone else. 

Lizzie happy to be at Nana's.
