Isla wore primarly newborn clothes until she was over 3 months old. Most of our 0-3 month clothes were winter items so I had to pick up a few warm weather outfits in that size (darn--mommy had to shop!). Last week those were suddenly too small and we're wearing mostly 3-6 month clothes now! And yesterday I realized she had a big stash of 3-6 month clothes in her closet with the tags on them still so now we have a whole new wardrobe.
She a little piggy yesterday but I think it caught up to her today. We still have to thicken her formula with oatmeal--she won't take it without any cereal in it. Increased formula means increased cereal which means increased fiber which means belly ache. Poor baby has been fussy and gasy today. I've been trying to put as little cereal in the bottle as possible because I've been afraid of fiber bombing her belly with the oatmeal. She ate some prunes after church today (yumm-o)so hopefully something will happen when she wakes up from her nap.
Isla has really started laughing out loud the past week or so. Her cousin J can really get her laughing. He's been hanging out with Grandma for a few weeks this summer so he's been helping babysit. He went to the mall with me and Isla yesterday and was a great help to have around.
The big thing on my things to do list is to start teaching. I finished my Masters Degree last summer and am going to start teaching a class for an online school hopefully next month (gotta complete their training program and officially get hired--training starts this weekend). I hope I like it and they like me. If it goes well, some serious consideration will be given to the employment situation. Part of the reason I finished my Masters was so I could explore teaching. The idea of being at home more keeps getting more and more appealing as Isla becomes more and more aware of things. But I still need to start deciding what we want to do daycare-wise after the beginning of the year when the grandmas' contracts are up.
More later. STILL need to upload some video!
