Twenty Third Week

Aleenah started eating cereal this week!! YAY! On Saturday, we finally decided it was time to start feeding her rice cereal/pablum. Daddy sat down with Alee at her high chair, and she absolutely loved it. At first she put her tongue in and out alot, making it a little difficult, as the food was slopping everywhere. Afterwards, she started getting used to it, and really seemed to enjoy it.

This week was a pretty quiet one, as Alee had a nasty cold. It started on Thursday, and she had a really runny nose. We thought perhaps it was teething, but no teeth yet.

We set up a nice play area for Alee in the living room, with a big blanket, she sits on it and plays. It won't be long until she is sitting up on her own! I can not wait.

Daddy taught Aleenah another trick, how to make kissing sounds. Everytime we make the sound, she mimicks it, she is quite comical.

Can't wait to see what will happen next week! :)

Twenty Second Week

We had a very quiet week, mostly spent at home. We started the weekend with daddy's attempt at dressing Alee. He put her diaper cover on her head, quite funny. I know he knew the difference, he was just being silly. Later we played with Vollie, and just hung out as a family, it was great... those are the moments I want Alee to remember most.

We set up a nice big corner of blankets, and pillows in the living room for Aleenah, so that she could get used to playing on the floor. She still is unable to fully sit up on her own, but I am sure it won't be long. Her favorite toy is the four rings (2 blue, 2 yellow with little animals) she just throws them around, and enjoys the clunking sound they make.

On Wednesday, we went to Grandma's and Alee played in the kiddy pool, she loved it. Even Vollie joined her, and layed down beside her. She loves to splash in the pool, and to play with all the little toys. Afterwards we just went inside and chilled out, and Alee ROLLED over, for the first time... that we saw. We tried to catch her doing it again on video, but it didn't happen again.

Everyday our little girl is doing new things, wonder what will be next...

Twenty First Week

Aleenah spent the week getting better, she was feeling under the weather for almost a week, and this week we spent it relaxing. She slept alot, and mostly we stayed home. We met Aleenah's little cousin Jaylin Elizabeth, Lindsey's little girl.. she was a cutie. Very small little baby.

Other than that, we went and visited little baby Bailey, and we got a nice new hat for Alee, which Vollie decided to eat one day... Silly dog.

Aleenah is getting bigger all the time, it will be exciting to see how big she is this week at the clinic, and hopefully Alee has gotten rid of this bug that she seemed to have.

Twentieth Week

Aleenah had a weird week this week. It started off pretty good, but by Thursday she was really sick. Everytime she ate, roughly an hour later she would throw up all her food. So therefore, it seemed like she was not getting much in... we went to the clinic and she weighed in at 14lbs 5oz, and they said she was gaining weight and seemed fine. However, on Friday night she was still puking everywhere so we decided to take her to emerg. She had a lot of fun playing with the stethescope, and thermometer.. once again she made me seem like a liar by being so happy :).

The doctor said she seemed fine, but I am convince something is going on with that little body of hers... we will see.

Other than that, we went to visit Alee's boyfriend Justin, they played together... it was pretty cute. We also went to lunch with Alee's other boyfriend Riley.. she is already boy crazy.. i can't imagine 16 years from now.

We spent a quiet week at home, resting mostly as Aleenah was sick.. hopefully she feels better next week.
