Gabby has meet some new friends this week. She met Toria, Valasco's daughter Friday. They slept peacefully next to eachother. She also met my client, Stephen's son, Jacob, yesterday. They too slept the whole time. So I am looking forward to future awake play dates. Watch out Mason, Jacob is trying to run some interfernce claiming Gabby. Gabby and I went to a baby shower for Nan's daughter in law on Saturday. Gabby enjoyed beinng held the whole time by everyone. Nan got to feed Gabby. She is the first person besides me or Jason to feed her. How fun. Gabby was trying to get Nan ready to be super grandma. They only have 11 more days till the baby arrives. Yesterday she hung out while CJ Leister played all around her. It was so cute he kept coming up to her saying, Gabby...baby and then pointing to all her parts. Nose, fingers, etc.
Gabby did great all weekend with her sleeping. She went four to five and a half hours between feedings at night. Which, I love. Jason is reading a book our neighbor gave us called, The Happiest Baby on the Block. Very interesting so far. So we are back to swadling Gabby. She appeared not to like it after two weeks but we gave it another shot and well who knew, she liked it. She does get some magic tricks from her dad and still can get those arms out. Too funny. It does seem to calm her though. Same old same old, she is still so gassy. Which makes her fussy. The swadling does seem to help with the gas. One of Jason's coworkers gave us a sling. We have been putting her in that so we can move about the house and get stuff done. She seems to really like the sling. She doesn't make a peep while she is in there. What a life, huh?!
Yesterday she not only tracked Enrique's finger but she also turned her head to follow his finger too. That was a first. She was full of smiles all weekend. Gas or not, it is so rewarding to see those big smiles! Awe, melts your heart. We are still doing tummy time but have not been as good as we should. She is also starting to grab onto things for short periods of time. She grabs onto my shirt while feeding. A lot of the time she will hold her pacifier in herself and if it falls out she will hold onto it as well. Now, if we could just get her to put it back in we would be set.
