Day 23 - Thursday, January 23, 2014
It's still been freezing, which means lots of online shopping. Elizabeth's drawers are so full they barely close! Her valentine pajamas came in the mail on Thursday, so I washed them and she wore them right away!
Day 24 - Friday, January 24, 2014
We had a day of playing in the house, it was still FREEZING!!!!!!David's friend was in town from Texas, so he came over to meet Elizabeth and then the two of them went out for the evening - I was asleep by 9:30! Elizabeth is back to rolling on her stomach during naps, but for some reason, she doesn't do it much at night.
Day 25 - Saturday, January 25, 2014
We woke up to no heat in our apartment! This is one time I do not miss owning a home, we made a call and by 5pm Saturday night we had a new system! We had a lazy day, went out to lunch and did lots of playing!
Day 26 - Sunday, January 26, 2014
We took a couple walks, and went to Hoboken for a trip to Carlo's Bakery since we hadn't been there in a while, and stopped at Verizon for David to get a new phone. Another laid back weekend day! I took this picture of our video monitor. Elizabeth woke up about an hour into going to sleep for the night, David went to check on her....whenever we go in to check on her in her crib, she grabs our hands, it is so hard not to stand there forever.
Day 27 - Monday, January 27, 2014
The super bowl is on Sunday and both teams are staying in Jersey City..at hotels about a 10 minute walk from us! So, we walked David to the ferry and then did some stalking, no sightings yet. But, the security is CRAZY around us! A friend came over to visit, Elizabeth tried sweet potatoes for the first time, and then we had our music class. Elizabeth loved it! Then, we had the joy of walking back in 20 degree temps where our building was having a fire alarm that lasted 45 minutes!! To say I was freezing when we got inside was an understatement....E on the other hand was toasty warm in all her layers and blankets!
I was changing Elizabeth on Tuesday morning and noticed a rash on Elizabeth. I decided to just keep an eye out on it. I fed her some sweet potatoes, we played and then when I went to change her, I noticed the rash was worse. So, I made a dr. appointment (our doctor just opened another office not even a 5 minute walk down the street from us, it is great!!) and by the time we got there, the rash was literally from head to toe. The conclusion is that it is from a cold or the sweet potatoes. By Tuesday night it was gone, so in a week we will try sweet potatoes again, and if the rash returns, we will obviously have our answer. While we were there, the doctor was remarking how mild mannered Elizabeth is, and asked if he could bring in some med students to practice looking at her eyes. She was awesome and just sat there, they were all impressed how calm she was the entire time! David and I are no longer needed by the way, Elizabeth grabs her bottle off the counter (obviously if we are holding her in front of it), and holds it herself while she eats:(
Day 29 - Wednesday, January 29, 2014
We went to our normal Wednesday coffee and then had fun playing at home. Elizabeth is officially sitting up by herself now!!
Day 30 - Thursday, January 30, 2014
Still cold! Elizabeth and I got together with some friends and their babies in one of the playrooms in another girl's apartment building. E is so observant, she loves to stare at the other babies, I think she sat there just doing that for the 2 hours we were there! She also held a baby boy's hand while we were there...the mom and I were laughing at how we will probably remember how cute it was forever! David was not impressed;) A pic of more new clothes...
ah i can't believe she's sitting up! she will be mobile before you know it! i always hated when my babies started holding their own bottles, tim always loved it!
