2/25/2010 Tummy time and Mobile

Oh Stella - how loud you can be - the baby/second child that needs to be heard - that's good in some ways too. Mommy started doing tummy time each day with you this past week or two - you're okay with it for 10-15 minutes, turning your head from left to right. Mommy also put up your new Tiny Love Mobile today...but called Daddy to get batteries for it on the way home from work ;0) Things are a little tiny bit easier now that you will sit in your bouncing chair, lay on your play mat or in the crib with the mobile on for 10-15 minutes at a time. Gives Mom free hands to prep dinner or get some little things done around the house...now only if you wouldn't cry in your car seat when the car is stopped...but you are better at being in the car then you big sister was - Julia hated being in the car seat as an infant!
You love music, being held and talked to...and of course the bounce on the exercise ball...the magic to get you to sleep. If you're tired enough and I put you in the baby bjorne or Mommy does the wrap carrier you will fall asleep within 5 minutes also...Mommy is still fearful of sleep training - something we will revisit after our Spring Break trip to Chicago.
