There are certain times of the day that are my favorite when it comes to Kayden. My first favorite time of day is when she wakes up in the morning. She is so awesome and will wake up and spend about 20 minutes playing by herself in her crib. She has even learned how to turn on the mobile! I have to admit, I thought this place was haunted for a few weeks because I couldn’t understand how the mobile turned on in the middle of the night (per Jill’s observation from the east coast) and during nap time. Turns out Miss Kayden has a good left kick to the mobile! I definitely love any time she is waking up- unless it’s with a startle or when I haven’t made it upstairs to her nursery fast enough! My next most favorite time of the day is when I am putting her to sleep. It’s not because it means that I have relief or because I get to kick back with my feet up with a glass of wine. The reason I love bed time is because my sweet baby is so affectionate when she is getting her final feeding of the day. She rubs my leg, she rubs my neck and chest, and she looks at me with such sweet eyes. I know she is tactile right now and just loves the texture of my ‘velour’ sweats or t-shirt, but it’s still is so sweet.  Two of the sweetest parts of a baby are her hands and feet. The tiny fingers, the pudgy palms, and the cute little nails that grow way too fast are just amazing! I look at Kayden every day and think how blessed I am to have her as my daughter. She has known me long enough to know that I need a schedule! Thank you Kayden for establishing your morning (1-2 hour) and afternoon (2 hours) naps!! I love that you understand me and we understand each other!!

Here are a few candid shots of Kayden from the week so far. 🙂

In the last two pictures Kayden is eating a Mum Mum. Maica introduced us to these. They are little rice cakes for babies and well (surprisingly) Kayden loves them! Who-da thought Kayden would love a new food?! 😉 These new treats are great for when she’s fussy or when her teethies are starting to bother her! Thanks Maica for the great find! 🙂
