Growing like a weed

So several weeks have passed since the last post, and more time than that since I added new pictures. It's time.

She is growing so much. From our crude weighing techniques (the difference between Jon on the scale with a naked Taelyn and Jon alone), she is nearly ten pounds. She has found her voice, has rolled over once, smiles when she recognizes mommy and daddy, and holds her head up on her own. She is growing up so fast. She also now cries to notify me of her displeasure of being neglected when I set her on my lap to trade sides when feeding her. That last one I could do without, but it does make me laugh.

Well, here are some more pictures. The first set is when I was deciding what to do with her hair for the baby blessing. I put gel in her hair with a flower that matches those on her dress. I'll add several of those, because I appreciate the faces she pulls.

Here is what usually happens when Jon comes home from work...

I'll give him credit, he does change her diaper first!

This next one is her favorite possition to sleep in. We usually put her to bed swaddled...but by morning, her arms are always up. Well, at least when I swaddle her. She always seems to get loose no matter how tight I swaddle her. Jon, on the other hand, is a pro.

Just a couple of sleeping pictures. You can't see it well, but yes, I painted her finger nails. Her toes match.

We have a small, pillow sized bean bag that some friends are letting us borrow. It is great! It allows us to jiggle her down into it, so that we can put her down without having to worry about her scooting away. This next set is some that I took today while she was on the bean bag. We had just gotten home from church and she was in an adorable dress that you can't see. I didn't think to change her when we got home, because clothes are clothes, right? Well, by the end of our nap, she had managed to explode out the back of her diaper. Next time, I'll get her out of the cute little outfits sooner.
