Runny Poop

Tonite after Kayla had her dinner, I put her in her exersaucer to play while we ate our dinner. Right before we were finished, we noticed that the bottom part of her exersaucer was filled with this runny green POOP! 'Oh goody' I thought. While Todd was cleaning up dinner, I was cleaning up Kayla. We have come to love our bath time! She kicks and kicks and loves how the water feels. She just grins from ear to ear.

We have started getting into a routine where her bed time is 8:30-8:45. That is a whole hour earlier then before. To our surprise, she has done great with this new change. She still sleeps through the nite until we wake her up at 7 am to get ready for the day. Today was a little hiccup though. She decided to wake up at 5 am! She was coughing and was having a hard time breathing. I sucked her nose out, gave her some Tylenol, and 2 oz of formula and put her back to bed. She then slept until 7 when Todd woke her up. This bears the question, should we increase her formula intake or start her on solid/cereal? Since Todd is not a fan a change, I think we might up her formula intake. To do this, we could either add more to her current bottles or add one more 'dream' bottle.

As I mentioned before, she started rolling over. She only rolls from her Tummy to her Back and usually to one side over the other. Yesterday, I was having tummy time with her and she refused to stay there. 6 times she rolled over so she wouldn't have to do tummy time! 6 times! I finally gave up and decided we would work on it more tomorrow. So today, after the bath, I laid her down on her tummy and again she just rolled over. I came back and put her back and again she rolled. Another 2 times she rolled to her back to get out of tummy time. I held her leg down so that she couldn't roll. She was not happy about that (of course). I put her on the boppy pillow to help prop her up and she just laid over it and started to suck on it. Not the point baby girl... We will continue working on it.

Tomorrow, Kayla is going to spend some time with Mimi while Todd and I go out. Maybe she can get her to stay on her tummy. She seems to like it when Mimi is down there too, talking to her. She will be 5 months old next week. I can't believe it! Time just is flyin by.
