I was able to sleep in today. I had gotten up the last seven nights with Reagan and I really needed one night's sleep uninterrupted. Thank goodness for that.
I woke up around 9am and Jim informed me that Reagan wouldn't eat for him. Oh well. I guess she really is finicky. Ugh. Since she wouldn't take a nap for me at 1030am, we all went to Jordan's soccer game at Children's field. Of course, she napped on the way there. :)
We were able to sit right next to the field this time which meant I had to be on the lookout for flying soccer balls. Thank goodness I only had to deflect one. She played well, watched the kids running by on the field, tried to crawl a few times but mostly tried to play and eat the grass. Hmmm. She loves the feel of grass.
After the soccer game, we decided to get our errands out of the way. I first needed a pitstop at Grammy & Grampy's. When we got there, she was sacked out which worked out well. I rocked her down with a bottle and left her there to sleep while we went grocery shopping. Woo hoo. Let me tell you how weird it was to shop without the baby. I'm so used to having her next to me that it uncomfortable. I kept checking for her. When we got back to G&G's house, Reagan wasn't quite awake yet. Jim left me there so he and Jordan could go home and put the groceries away.
Grammy had put out a kids nap mat that she had gotten at Kohl's for her to sleep on. It was cute. It was a Lion made into a mat. The it was like mini-sleeping bag that had a pillow attached to it. On one corner of the pillow, there was a lion's head and at the end of the mat, there was a tail.
Reagan slept well on it - not moving once while she slept. She woke up and played on the mat - babbling and pulling at the lion. Babbaaababbbdadadddaa. You could tell she was curious about where she was - she probably didn't recognize their room.
After a quick diaper change, we played in their dining room for a while. She was able to get up on all fours pretty well. She pulled herself straight up on Grampy and is happy as can be. The nice thing is that she goes right to both of them. She doesn't think twice about it. I am sure it's because they are always around and she assumes they should be.
After dinner, we put her in her playpen to see if she would cruise a bit. She loves to stand up at and play so we've been putting her on things that she can "cruise" on. She does cruise some, but tends to be very slow.
The cute thing she did tonight was wave "bye bye" to her Daddy. Jim said "hi" and she instantly waved. Then he said "bye bye" and she started babbling and waving to him. It was so adorable.
