We have a ROLLER!

Okay, well maybe that is a slight exaggeration! She isn't exactly rolling all over the house ... yet anyway. But at 5am this morning, she was fussing and I knew it was time for a bottle...so I went to her room ... and she was laying on her STOMACH in her crib. Since I put her on her back at 1am ---- that means she rolled over! Her first time.She has been trying for all she's worth the past week to roll over. It makes me laugh watching her try sooo hard. So we knew it was only a matter of time...
I looked at JaCee's baby book to see when she rolled over for the 1st time & she did it at 11 weeks. JaCee seemed extremely early for us & the pediatrician...and the problem was JaCee loved to sleep on her stomach. So the Dr said try to roll her back over on her back when you find her sleeping on her tummy. Uhhmmm...ya, right. With the nightmare JaCee was...when she was asleep --- stomach or not, I wasn't going to touch her. I don't think Morgen is going to be the tummy sleeper JaCee was, but we'll see.




Morgen also got to go in her Jump-a-roo for the 1st time this week. She loved it. She absolutely loves licking her hands. This is how she self soothes...anyway, this toy allows her full access to her hands w/out much work. Pretty cute if you ask me!





I had to go through the tub of bigger size clothes for Morgen after Matt made a comment that Morgen looked like a Sumo-wrestler in her most of her onsie's. Just pulling out bigger onsie's turned into a full wardrobe change. I found this outfit and had to take a picture in it because I have one of JaCee in the same thing... and I love it! Can you tell who is who?








Morgen is the top one...in case the cheeks didn't give it away! Morgen is just 3 months in this outfit & JaCee was 5 months in the same outfit. Morgen is getting so long. She's in 6-9 month clothes right now.



JaCee is getting older & smarter. She can almost say full sentences now...usually just missing an adjective, but she's mimicking everything I do to Morgen, with her babies. It's soo adorable to watch. My favorite time is watching her play with her babies when she doesn't know I'm watching her --- seeing her "shhh-ing" her baby to sleep or saying "Oh hunny...it's ok, here is your binkie" (the same things I say to Morgen). Here is a glimpse of what my day's are filled with:

Grandma Shelley made JaCee a cute apron to help mommy with while cooking. Saturday morning JaCee asked me to put it on her. So I did...then she got her baby & this was the outcome! Apron turned baby Bjorn! She smiled & was so proud of herself & said, "like mommy!"
That is her favorite baby. It's my old cabbage patch I had when I was little. I've saved it all these years for my daughter.



Craft time ~


and Tummy time with Morgen~This week looks like rain most of the week so I'll have to get busy with crafts & baking to keep JaCee busy!
