A visit from Grandma and Grandpa O
We’ve had visitors and we’ll be having more in honor of Jocelyn’s arrival. My Dad and Cindy were here to meet our little girl last week. It was great having them, gave me an excuse to cook some yummy food. It rained a lot, welcome to an actual rainy season in the bay area. We didn’t do much but visit and fuss over the baby. She’s growing like a weed, at her last pediatrician’s appointment she was in the 90th percentile for both height and weight. Jocelyn is also a particularly strong baby and developing perfectly. Our only complaint is she’s not a very good napper these days and that makes her a bit grouchy. I think we’re going to break down and get a rocking chair; I’ve been having pain in my left shoulder which I think is from holding and rocking her in my arms while standing. Having Dad and Cindy here was great, Jocelyn likes to be held pretty much all the time so having a couple extra sets of arms was a lot of help. So any other visitors who want to come and hold the baby to give me a little break, please be our guest(s)!
Rocking chairs rock. Definitely get one, makes life masses easier at this age.
You’re right, afreeman, I bought one off of craigslist yesterday and she really likes it. My shoulder’s already thanking me!
What a cutie!! In the picture where she’s being held up in the air on the couch and she stretching her neck to look around…she looks just like Matt!
Can she roll over yet?
Hi Tom! She can roll from her belly to her back (though she only does it sporadically, it’s really more like just letting gravity take its course). She’s working hard at rolling over from her back to her front and can get herself up on her side really well, she’ll probably get there soon.
