• Can stand and hold herself up on something 
• Recognizes Mommy and Daddy. She has begun to show signs of favoring us (can mostly see it with me).
• Has held arms up a few times in bumpo chair like she is trying to tell me to pick her up. Melts my heart. <3 font="font">
• Schedule
• Sleeps from 8:00-8:30pm to around 7-7:30am (in rock n play). We are getting ready for crib transition
• Starting to get bored of play mat. Only entertained on it for about 10 minutes and usually that is in the morning. She always wants me to play with her!
• Eating every 3 hours - 730am, 1030am, 130pm, 430pm, 730pm. At 1030 feeding she is getting oatmeal. :)
• Bath time 7-730pm. Bottle after, then down for the night.

• First time in high chair and first time to eat oatmeal
• First time to meet her cousins, Ashton, Abigail, and Aiden
• Wants to be everywhere I am during the day. 
• Wakes up in morning and just lays there looking around until me or Forrest goes in. She gets a big smile on her face when she sees us and kicks her legs and flails her arms!
• Brought out the baby bullet and read about making her veggies and fruits. We will start that this month. :P
