Pictures

Here are some pictures of Alyssa. They are from my phone, so they may be a little blurry :)

Her first time in a high chair in a restraunt. She did very well!

Her first peice of Zweiback Toast. She loved it!
Her first time using a sippy cup! She had a lot of fun!

Playing in her high chair while Mom did the dishes :) Such a good girl!

Caught off guard?

This picture is a little old, but I put her in the chair to watch TV while I took the dogs out, & this is what I found when I got back! She was VERY tired I guess :)

Update

Well, I can't put pictures on the computer, because there's something wrong with it, but I wanted to post an update.

So, on the 8th of February, Alyssa turned 6 months old! Wow! She's half a year old already, I can't even believe it. Where has the time gone?

It also seems that in the past 2 weeks, she has changed so much. She now eats cereal, carrots, applesauce, sweet potatoes, bananas, squash, & pears! She LOVES to eat. In the past few days, she went from eating 4 oz to eating 6 oz. She is growing so fast!

She has also been "talking" more. She now says "whoa," "da," & "ma." She doesn't say da-da or ma-ma all the time, but she is saying them more & more!

At her 6 month appointment she was 16 lbs. 5 oz. & 26" long. She is growing like a weed! She didn't have to have her tongue clipped at her appointment. It "unattached" on its own, so we were very greatful for that!

Yesterday & today, Alyssa has been VERY fussy & chewing/drooling like crazy! Her gums are very red & swollen. I am just waiting for the tooth to pop through! I hope it doesn't take too much longer. I feel so bad for her!

Other than that, things here are good! It's getting busy, & I know it will only get busier! I will try to update with pictures soon :)

Don't like the feel of the carpet???

Here's a video of Alyssa in her Jumperoo. It was the first time she has been in it in her bare feet. I don't know if she liked the feel of the carpet! :-)

By the way, she was "happy screaming" not crying. LOL

Daddy

So, there was a point where Alyssa only wanted Mommy. When Bryan would hold her, she would just scream, then he would give her to me & she would stop. It was really sad & I knew it really bothered him.

Lately though, Alyssa & Daddy are like best friends. They are so cute together & I love how much he loves her :)

Bath Time

Alyssa LOVES bath time! Here are some cute pictures :)

Eating

So, we started Alyssa on "food" last Saturday. Her first adventure was carrots. She LOVES cereal & we figured it was time to see if she liked other things. She didn't seem too interested in the carrots at first, but she did eat them.

So far, she has only had carrots & applesauce. I think this weekend, we are going to try squash & bananas. I LOVE that she is eating. It's so fun to feed her, eventhough she thinks it's funny to blow raspberries when I give her a bite. That gets to be a little messy. It's a good thing she likes bath time :)
