Big Girl

Yesterday was paci-free! Livy wouldn't nap, but that could have been for reasons other than no paci in her mouth. She slept all night, though! Yay!! She's been napping without it at school for a few months, and we wouldn't let her have it at home unless she was in her crib, so she's been cut back. But it was still tough getting her to actually go to sleep! :) However, since she slept all night, we know that she really doesn't need it, it was just a habit. What a big girl!

Still here

Yes, I'm still here. I thought maybe the blogging world wasn't for me, but I've realized that relatives, friends, family, etc. might want a way to keep up with Livy. So I'm going to try it out for a bit longer. I love reading other people's blogs, but somehow it's not as exciting when it's my own. Go figure.

Livy's doing really well. She's wearing panties almost exclusively now, and hasn't had an accident in a week or so. (Knock on wood!) She's growing and growing. She loves to "read" stories to her animals, baby dolls, Beep Beep, or whatever/whoever will listen! It's so cute! It truly is amazing to watch her grow and change. Here are some recent pictures and a video of her "reading". Enjoy!

Here, Livy was telling her peacock to "Say cheeeeese!"

On a side note, I get really tired of moms who gave birth with no drugs bragging about it. Seriously. Like I'm not a good mom because I had an epidural?! Please.

Reading to her zookeeper friend (you can barely see him in her "lap").

Livy and Wes working on her tracing book that she got for Christmas.

Reading again. Sorry it's sideways, I'm new at this!
