Almost four months








So Lainey will be four months on the 10th, hard to believe. She's already showing signs of teething (drooling, knawing on her hands, runny nose, etc), which seems early but I guess it's really not. In addition to her teething symptoms, she threw up and had a extremely loose stools this morning. Her first sickness, I feel so helpless :( Not much we can do as far as medication at this point b/c she is so young. Benadryl is about all she can take, the upside for mom is she's more sleepy! Lainey is also working on holding her own bottle which is fun to watch. The bottle is too heavy for her to hold with 4 ounces, but boy when she gets half way thru she wants to hold it! She is in the best place she could be for child care. They are working with her on sign language (she's working on signing "more" right now), they help her to raise up on her arms and also encourage her to babble in conversations! How the heck you babble in conversations is beyond me, but she seems to be doing well. She's the only girl and the youngest baby right now in the infant room, so she gets spolied with attention. It makes me feel good she's loved :)


We went back to Ellsworth this weekend to play in a golf tournament. Ryan and I both played in the tourney, so Lainey hung out with the grandmas. She saw all four grandmas this weekend(Mema, Grandma Peschka, Great Grandma Claussen and Great Grandma Rosie)! Makes me miss my Grandma Wilson and wish she could be around to see Lainey grow up.
The pictures - Lainey's cousin Chloe showed us how to pick strawberries on her field trip at school when we were out in DC. Her cousin Dylan had a baseball game, his team is also known as the Bad News Bears. It was good to see them this summer and Lainey enjoyed her new cousins! The rest are just some fun pictures around the house. Enjoy!
