Yesterday, I spent most of the day at the mall. I had several gift cards from Christmas and my baby shower that we still needed to use. I went to the Baby Gap and got a few cute outfits for Sophie, went to Sears because Brock desparately needed jeans and hasn't had the time to go and get some new ones, and went to Hallmark to get cards for Father's Day and sympathy cards for Kelly's family. The mall was especially humid so there was some places that I wanted to stop by that I decided to pass on till next time.
Today was another day of running. I had to go to Target to get a few things and found that they had diapers on sale, I had a coupon for them, and they gave a $5 gift card if you bought two. Since diapers are one thing that we know we will use, I was rather excited. They weren't the brand that we like for her right now so we got them in one size up for when Sophie gets older. After my shopping spree at Target, it was off to the grocery store where I got some more great deals. All and all it was a good day. Brock stay home with Sophie which definitely made shopping easier. I was able to get in and get out and get home.
This week Sophie had some new tricks for us. Tuesday night we were sitting in the living room with Sophie while she enjoyed some time on her activity mat. She had been trying to roll over from her back to her tummy for several weeks. Well Tuesday night she had success. She now can roll over to her tummy and is starting to work on rolling back to her back.
She also has started to laugh out loud. She has been smiling and cooing for quite some time. But this is a full blown giddle. It is so cute. She definitely is a happy baby!
And for her finale! Since she has been born she has been sleeping her Pack and Play in our room. It really made it easier for us when she was first born so that I could nurse and care for her while I was healing from the birth. We had been trying to get her to start sleeping in her crib for several weeks but every time we put her in her crib she wouldn't sleep for long before she would start screaming! Well last night we thought we'd try again. YIPPEE! She slept through the night in her own bed! We'll probably keep her pack and play up for a couple of nights to be sure.
My final task of the day was to get Sophie's clothes hung up and organized. It's been driving me crazy. There are sooooo many cute outfit out there for girls and Laura (my babysitter for Sophie while I am at work) also had some cute clothes that she was going to sell on eBay that she gave me first dibs at. This girl definitely has plenty of clothes to wear :)
It's definitely been a crazy week for us, filled with joy and sadness.
