Brie makes new friends

So, there's been a good bit of chaos in our lives with me working and then being off for a week and working for another week. I think we may be settling back into some sort of routine again finally. Gabrielle is doing well with eating "solids". She loves her cereal, sweet potatoes, squash and prunes. She's not such a fan of peas, however. She has started going to Sunday School and she looks like such a big girl sitting at the table with all the other kids. She really does like to interact with other babies now. We took a trip down to Summerville to visit Kimmy and her girls Rylie (3 yrs) and Kenna (8 mos). Both girls were crazy about Brie from the minute we walked through the door and she thought that they were truly amazing. She's had a little bit of separation anxiety, but I think she's getting over that and letting other people hold her again. She was very social at small group Sunday night at Mom and Dad's.

She is still growing so fast. I had to change diaper sizes again, which is always bittersweet. I want her to grow, but I want to be able to enjoy her being small for as long as possible. So, thanks to Kimmy's advice, she is in a size 2/3 diaper now. I didn't know they made a size like that, but it is PERFECT for her.

Brie is also doing pretty well about sitting up on her own. She prefers to play sitting up now. She has an old exersaucer from a garage sale that keeps her busy and it is so funny to see her touch everything and just move around so fast. At Mom and Dad's she's using Skylar's old jumperoo and she gets so tickled the minute the music starts to play. She doesn't actually jump so much as she sort of runs in place. It is so funny to watch! I am torn between wanting her to become mobile because I know she is frustrated about her lack of mobility at this point, and terrified about how busy she's going to be once she becomes mobile. She's so busy already and she is contained!
