Up-To-Date

I'm so behind on my blogging, hopefully this makes up for it.....

Sometimes Summer thinks she's found her thumb:

Most of the time she sleeps in a swaddle, but some days she just needs to CRASH on her daddy's lap (like a little buddha):


She loves her Bumbo chair! (it's the chair she's sitting in...MOM & DAD RIGSBY) =)

My Mini-Me:

I know she's a little young to have one of these, but her legs are super strong and she loves to be on her feet. Grandma & Grandpa Casanova took her to Babies R Us and put her in different jumperoos. When they put her in this one, she smiled really big and Grandpa said, "Oh look! She likes this one!" so in the shopping cart it went. Her legs don't touch the floor yet so we improvise by putting a platform underneath her feet and she is just happy as can be. Every time she jumps, the lights & music play:

Summer has "her spot" on the couch right between two big cushions:

She thinks she found her finger again:

Just recently she's started biting her bottom lip (in addition to pouting it):

Roly Poly

Summer is 3 months old today!! She is such a sweet baby. I'm sure all moms would agree that they never tire of looking at their little ones. Summer looks like an angel when she sleeps... she stretches (for at least 10 minutes) to wake up...she is bright eyed & bushy tailed playing in the tub...and she looks so helpless and innocent when she nurses. Lately she's been trying real hard to get her fists inside her mouth. She still hasn't found her thumbs yet, though. She also knows how to scoot clockwise/counterclockwise on her playmat. It's amazing how much she's grown in this amount of time! She does so many silly and cute things.

For example, the last week or two we've wondered if she was really rolling over or if it was just "the slant of the bed" or how we "positioned her arms" for tummy time. I needed to get to the bottom of this and catch her in the act. So this morning I put her on her playmat for tummytime while I washed the dishes. When I checked on her, she was on her back! Hmmm...I put her back on her tummy and turned around to get my camera and caught the sneaky li'l infant doing this...
