Adiós Daycare!!!


Keaton is officially out of daycare! Today, we started nanny sharing with our friends Katie and Bryan and their fabulous nanny, Maria. Maria is perfect for Keaton... she loves on her and holds her and we couldn't be happier. Her buddy Pierce had quite the opposite day, having to share his Maria for the first time was quite an eye opener, but hopefully that will only last a short time before they are playing together. We also had a HUGE accomplishment today... Keaton rolled over... TWICE in a row! So when we got home today, she was in such a great mood that I figured it would be a great time for tummy time. She immediately pushed herself up and rolled herself over to her back. I said I wasn't going to put it in the baby book unless she did it again, and she did right away! She said she is FREE of the bouncy seat at daycare and she is amazed at the way she can move! She is also in love with her voice... or should we say scream. I'm not sure if this is "normal" or not, but she has a scream for a coo now. And she LOVES to listen to it!

I have found my mouth and I want everything in it!


So, I guess I can pretty much kiss goodbye any annoyances I have about germs and things being really clean. Keaton is putting everything she can get a hold of in her mouth. She shakes her head really fast as she attacks everything! I'm not sure if this means she is getting teeth... I really hope not yet. We had a doctors appointment the other day and KLove is not gaining as much weight as she should be??? She only gained 8 ounces in 6 weeks. And currently she is only 10 pounds 8 ounces. She spits up SOOOOOO much. After she eats, she lets out a few good burps and then she just pours milk out of her mouth. It falls down all the stairs in our house and it is all over our wood floors. Every shirt, and pair of pants, and shoes I have, have spit up all over them. And not just a little, I'm talking like projectile out of her. But, she is happy when it is happening? The other day, I fed her in the Nordstroms women's lounge and then walked around the children's section while we waited for Nathan to meet us for lunch. I thought I was going to have to buy half the clothes there because she just kept puking all over everything. It was really embarrassing. However, the entire time she was cooing and screaming and laughing, so I have no idea what this means. We started supplementing her 12:30 pm feeding with formula in hopes that she would gain a little weight and to also take some strain off of me from having to pump so much while at work. I thought maybe the formula would help with the spitting up, but rather it is just a different, thicker, smellier type of spit up. The doctor has us going back in 2 more weeks for another weight check. She is definitely growing in length though because most outfits that have the feet in them do not fit her... she can't straighten her legs.
