Visiting in oakland, october






it's been a long while between posts. again. no excuses, just life getting in the way. i am just back from a siena-sarah-david and jewlee (!) fix and have some photos to prove it! siena is big enough now that she can ride facing front in her bjorns. she seems to enjoy seeing the world go by and is quite content. it's fun to see her looking quite pleased with herself as she goes out the door.
my task while there was to get siena re-accustomed to taking a bottle. needless to say it was not on her personal list of things she enjoyed! one day i was able to get her to take about 3 ounces, with david and i tag teaming to keep her distracted when she protested. the next day, she was pretty upset and finally took a bit with david feeding her and after a walk took another bit with me wielding the bottle. between us maybe 2 1/2 to 3 ounces. it is definitely something to keep working on and hopefully she will get the idea and just deal one of these days. :) she is getting breast milk in the bottles but she would much prefer the direct method of delivery!

She will get the hang of the bottle again! Patience and persistence...............it is so worth it for the freedom it brings the mom! So great you can visit frequently!
 
i feel so very fortunate that i have been able to get out there so often. i am loving the grandma thing! :)
