Look Ma, No Hands



We love carrying and holding little baby Jayden, but she is getting bigger and bigger. And it would be nice to accomplish some things and still get to hold her. So we invested in something called a Sleepy Wrap. It's a big piece of stretchy cotton terry cloth. At first it was tough to figure out how tight to make it. But we've used it the past 2 days to take her our on walks. She slept the whole time. The Sleepy Wrap doesn't have any straps to adjust between the two of us, and there aren't any Velcro pieces to scratch her. Plus the company is out of Boulder, Colorado - bonus!

One Month Check-Up...



Passed with flying colors. Jayden is officially in the 70th percentile for weight (hefty 10lb 2.5 oz) and 50th percentile for length (21 inches).
Way to go, Princess Poopypants! She celebrated with a long tall drink of breast milk. For her next trick, she will either cure cancer or create a dirty diaper. Can't wait to see which one she'll choose.

Mommy actually gets to be in a video.

I try to update both my Facebook page (and tag Matt) and also the Snapfish albums.

Here are couple of Jayden in her fancy outfit and just thinking about life...

playtime

For our weekend trip to Costco we attempted to dress Jayden in one of her many fashionable outfits. Unfortunately it only lasted for 30 seconds before she spit-up all over the fancy shirt. We'll give it another shot soon.

As she's getting a little more awake and active each day, we finally busted out the activity mat (thanks Aunt A!). Here is the latest video:

Moses in the Basket

This is Jayden waking herself up, with lots of stretches and squirming.
