Tess has this new habit that is driving Mommy up the wall. She is sucking on her fist! At first I thought -- hmmmm this is kinda cute and then it got not so cute when her poor little hand comes out looking red and swollen after a sucking fest! I try to remove the fist and insert the susie but she will just spit it out and put the fist back in. It is not a comforting, put me at ease to sleep sort of thing -- but, more like a I have found my hands, they taste good and it makes funny noises so this is fun kinda thing. Anyhow maybe this will pass (hopefully). She is doing really well lately. She had some weird spells after the party the other night so I took her in to the doctors and they took a urine sample from her. Hopefully it was only the over stimulation from the party that caused these episodes. After last night (pancake supper at the church), we realized that over stimulation does cause poor lil miss to cry and refuse her feedings. I think this one likes the quiet and we may have to find a babysitter for some social time! Any takers?? Here is a picture of Tessa and her new habit.
Tessa has been spending much more time in her bumbo lately as her neck and head control are improving. She is a pro now :) So anytime lil miss is laying down partly she fusses and complains -- or....
just tries to sit up on her own. Funny little girl is showing Mommy just how strong she is. We may have to say goodbye to the breastfeeding pillow until she is actually big enough to somewhat sit on her own. It has been wonderful for laying her in for an early morning feed because she will just fall asleep in it afterwards. SO today we bid goodbye to you my friend and we will see you again in a couple months when Tess decides she wants to sit on her own and Mommy can prop you behind her so that when she loses her balance she doesn't hit the floor :)That is the update for now. Stay tuned for some more pictures of the girls. They we so in love with one another this morning and I got some great shots.
