Babysitting

Last Wednesday the daycare Kyndall goes to was closed so I drove up to Salina to babysit. I work at summer rec in Hoisington so I assumed taking care of her all day would be a piece of cake. Well... let's just say I got a few surprises. When she woke up she was in a pretty good mood but it didn't last long. She gets hungry really fast. It never fails that every time you feed her she throws a fit when you try to burp her half way through her bottle. Once she has a full tummy she's usually a happy little girl. We turned on CMT and she loved dancing to the music. It was the first time I'd really heard her full out giggle and laugh. She loves being in her jumper toy thing now. She sucks on the material and then stares at the lights as she listens to the music. Tummy time is now another activity she loves. Now she is able to hold her head up pretty high. I doubt it will be too long before she figures out how to crawl.

I got a surprise after one of her feedings though. Amy just left again at noon and as I was burping her she spit up everywhere. There wasn't a drip on her but it was all over my leg and the couch. I didn't even know how to clean it up off the couch so I ended up having to call Amy. Another thing that surprised me was how she's started to roll over. It takes her awhile but she can do it. She still has troubles taking naps though. Her hands always spaz out and she wakes herself up. If by some miracle she does fall asleep it's never for long (maybe 30 minutes).

I did take her on a walk around the block in her stroller though. We only made it two times around before she fell asleep which was a good thing because she gets hot and sweaty fast. She was content the whole time but refused to keep her little sunglasses on. All she would wear was her hat. Additionally, her hand is almost always in her mouth. She puts everything in her mouth. That includes her bib, her hand, your hand, your shirt, her toys, her burp rags, and her blankets. Who knows what's going to happen when she starts to teeth.

I will be posting more pictures soon. I've just been short on time lately.
