Fiona got to go on her first vacation, first airplane ride and first boat ride all at Granny Mo's house in Texas. We had a fun relaxing week on the river and Logan will probably never stop talking about it ;) More about it and pictures to come in a future post! As for Fiona though, she did great on the airplane ride, can't ask for more then a sleeping baby!
Dom had his first Colorado triathlon too which he did really well on, Fiona cried a lot as i was trying to get her to fall asleep for a nap while trying to watch Logan and see Dom at transition but we did pretty well, luckily the Valania's were there to help keep Logan entertained through the waiting to see daddy portions ;). So Fiona is getting versed in becoming a spectator and will have another chance in August to cheer daddy on.
Fiona has been busy learning new things, she rolled over for the first time (tummy to back) on May 30 while watching Logan play with daddy, there was no crying and she made it seem like it was no big deal. Then she didn't do it again until she got it down for good June 18. Logan is so cute when he watches her he likes to cheer her on. And she loves to watch him, whenever he's in the room she gives him a big smile and won't take her eyes off of him. Fiona also likes to play peek-a-boo with us and wheels on the bus is a favorite as she always smiles when you move her arms to the motions. She is good at grabbing things now, holding them and putting them straight in her mouth. If her hands are not busy doing that, or being in her mouth, she has found she likes to rub the top of her head now. Fiona's favorite noise she likes to make is a gurgling sound, she loves when you do it back to her too. Other then that she is fairly quiet compared to another little baby I remember ;). She likes to try and sit up now, so she is getting lots of practice and sometimes will sit in the bumbo for a little while too. She has always liked bath time but lately she has really enjoyed kicking her feet and splashing and watching us pour the water and trying to grab it. Logan loves to help give Fiona a bath, I think he has just as much fun watching her and splashing too.
She is such a happy and easy baby still! The only difficulty we are having at the moment is trying to transition her away from sleeping swaddled since she is rolling over now, she just really loves being swaddled and it's a bit harder to get her to fall asleep and stay asleep unswaddled because her hands just go to her mouth and wake her up. We are only trying during her short naps during the day, hopefully she will get used to it and better at it so we can do it all the time. She's still hit and miss with sleeping through the night but we've had more good nights then bad lately. She goes to sleep about 7:30pm and wakes up to eat on a good night about 3am then falls back asleep until 6:30am. She usually takes an hour nap around 8:30am then her longer 3ish hour nap around 11:30/12 and then her last cat nap around 5:30pm lasts about an hour. The only other somewhat difficulty we are having is she is not always a fan of the car and it's not always predictable when she decides to scream the whole way and when she decides she can be happy about it, Logan will remind me when she is screaming to "turn the music up" because once it gets louder she stops crying usually. Otherwise she is just a lot of fun and growing so fast! It is so nice to watch her and Logan interact more now and the love they show for one other is just so heart warming.
My babies!
