When Jillian would nap, I used to relax and get stuff done - do the dishes, get some work done, finally eat breakfast/lunch, ect. Over the past week she's developed the need to no longer sleep on her back. She instantly rolls over to her tummy and crawls all around the bed, exploring. She's started pulling her bumpers off, and playing with her Sleep Sheep.... all that sounds fun, right? Well, once she's explored for 15 minutes she just face plants into the mattress and falls asleep.
That freaks me out! The first few days I'd go and roll her over or try and reposition her head so she could breath easier. That didnt work out so well. That'd usually wake her from a nap = not good. So I now spend her naps checking on her and staring at the video monitor. Any other moms out there have crazy babies that sleep the same way?? Should I be worried? We see our pediatrician next week so I will be quizzing him.
(It is funny to see her face when she's just woken up. Her whole face is red from being smashed in the mattress.)
We just got back from visiting my sister in Colorado. My parents came along too, so the whole family was together - we had so much fun! It was great to get away for 5 days. Although I came back MUCH more tired than when I left, we still had a great time. Totally worth it. Jillian was a great little traveler again! She got a little restless on the 3 hour flights, but no crying. I was soooo relieved! I sadly didn't take ONE picture! I took my small camera I rarely use anymore and left the memory card in my other camera! I start snapping photos and it tells me No Memory...... no!!
Earlier this week Mariam and I took our babies to the Arboretum. We got to enjoy the gorgeous spring weather, and the babies loved it! We even ran into Pam and her friend Courtney with their little ones. Needless to say, the Arboretum was full of momma's with their babies.... we'll definitely be going back!
They wouldn't let babies under 2 into the petting zoo area.
Jillian was still amused through the fence.
It's so cute watching babies interact. Leila is just so active and fun. Jillian watched her crawl and pull up on things to stand. (I forgot Jill's sun hat!! I'll remember it next time!)
Another thing I love about Spring?? Seeing Jillian's CHUBBY arms again! check those out!

It was SO fun running into you guys!!! We'll see you in a couple of weeks at Stroller Fit!
I frecked out when Caden could roll over at nap time. Our pediatrician said when its time that they can roll over and sleep on their tummies its ok to let them! Its hard at first but you'll relax more as time goes on!
