After the bath

Rozi still doesn't seem to enjoy the post-bath festivities: drying off, getting lotion, a new diaper, etc. She usually doesn't want to get out of the tub, and she certainly doesn't like to hold still that long.
This is a rare photo of a calm, smiley post-bath cutie.

Bath time

Rosalyn is really enjoying bath time again, and bath photos are always adorable. She stands at the edge of the tub a lot now, just because she can. :)
She always has at least one toy in each hand, and sometimes one in her mouth.

Sleepy Angel

My favorite time with Roz is always right after she wakes up- she's just such an angel. I haven't gotten to watch her sleep much lately because she is getting older and no longer falls asleep at the drop of a hat. I rarely go into her room while she's sleeping because I don't want to wake her up. However, this morning she slept in and I got to watch her wake up. I opened the door, which is usually enough to wake her right up, but it didn't today. If that doesn't happen, usually opening the blinds opening does it, but not today. So I turned on her light and gently talked to her until she woke up. Luckily, I thought to grab the camera and catch her on tape- what sweetness. You can even hear her snoring a little at the beginning of the video.

Silliness

I can now load video directly from the phone- yay! Roz was home "sick" from daycare yesterday. She had a slight fever Monday afternoon, so they said she was not allowed to come back until today. I think she's just teething- she sure isn't acting sick!

Testing photo post from phone

Roz likes to pull up on this bookshelf (it's mounted to the wall). The other day we went to the store and I hadn't yet put away the toilet paper. It was in her way, so she decided to stand on it- why should anything get in the way of something she wants? We now have a whole package of flat TP rolls.

Testing the iPhone blog app

This is just a test of the app that will hopefully allow me to post to the blog directly from my phone, making it easier to add photos taken on the phone, etc.

Playing with paper

This video is actually a few weeks old, but I forgot to post it. Last time we were in Macon, my mom checked the mail and found a catalog. She laid it out in the living room floor for Rosalyn to play with, and they had a grand-ole-time for at least 20-30 minutes. Mom had to "help" Rosalyn remember not to put it in her mouth, but they threw paper in the air and laughed like it was the funnest game ever.
Daycare update: everything went great. Rosalyn had fun playing with new toys and other kids, and I got a lot of stuff done today. Roz was pretty cuddly when we got home (which I enjoyed because she's been so busy lately!), but not clingy or upset. The daycare teachers said the only time she got upset was when they changed her diaper, and I said at least she's consistent!
Let's hope tomorrow goes as smoothly!

Day Care

Hi everyone,

Sorry for the disappearance recently. We've had a busy few weeks, but Rosalyn started daycare today. While I'm sad that I won't witness every moment from now on, I really like the daycare she's at, and I'm super excited to be able to get some things done in the next week or so before I start classes.

Corey (and everyone else) was concerned that I would be a wreck all day. Seriously though, the roach I had to kill this morning got me more worked up than having to start daycare. She was in good spirits this morning, and she's become such a social thing, so I'm sure she's doing fine. Here's a quick photo Corey snapped before we left to drop her off. I'll try to update tonight or tomorrow.

I almost can't believe how many little tasks I'm accomplishing so quickly having a day all to myself!

(But don't be surprised if you see me wistfully scrolling through all of the photos on my phone just to look at her).

Have a great day!

Practice makes perfect

We went to Macon over the weekend, and Rosalyn spent most of her time there practicing pulling up on things. As soon as she got up, she would sit right back down and do it again.

We took these photos at Granny's. At my parents' house, she kept going back and forth between a chair and the ottoman. She's getting pretty talented!

I added this picture just because sometimes I have to see the photos to remind myself that she was once this small and non-mobile! :)
