Alaina Will Be Crawling Soon...

Alaina is really moving around these days! She is a pro at rolling over. She constantly rolls back and forth when we lay her down, even when changing her diaper! Alaina loves to lay on her stomach, despite the doctor's suggestion for her to sleep on her back. Every morning when I go to get her out of her crib, she is sleeping on her stomach with her little butt straight up in the air. She's so cute. Recently she has discovered how to keep her head up as she plays on her stomach. At the same time she kicks her legs. It really won't be long before she's crawling. I love this video of her moving around. She is able to support her head for a long time! I also love her huge belch in the middle of the video. What a lady!

More Visitors!

Alaina met some more family members yesterday afternoon. My godmother came from Indiana with two of her children, Nick and Maria. It was so cute watching Nick and Maria hold Alaina. It doesn't seem that long ago that I was holding them as infants. Now they're all grown up and holding my own daughter.

Maria was so good with the baby. Alaina fell asleep in her lap.

Please, summer, never go away!

Today was a beautiful summer day. I couldn't help but dress Alaina in her cute little swimsuit for a summer photo shoot. No, we didn't go swimming. We don't even have a kitty pool. I just felt like dressing her in a swimsuit and talking to her about the beach. She was just too cute. Later on, we took advantage of the nice day and went for a long walk. I absolutely love being at home with Alaina. We wish that summer would last forever, but unfortunately it will soon be over. I go back to work in only two more weeks! But until then, I'm taking advantage of each day with Alaina. :)
