What Did You Do All Day?
By: Veronica Kavanagh (View Profile)
A man came home from work and found his three children outside, still in their pajamas, playing in the mud, with empty food boxes and wrappers strewn all around the front yard.
The door of his wife’s car was open, as was the front door to the house and there was no sign of the dog.
Proceeding into the entry, he found an even bigger...

Waverly was such a handful today...
that I’m making a batch of stress cookies just to recover.
Easy like Sunday Morning my foot… RW

WatchWe have entered the world of clapping! I have been so excited about this new skill that I’m trying to get her to use it in place of screaming when possible. Like, “Waverly when you want something can you clap instead of scream at the top of your precious little lungs?”
I’ll have to get back with you on how that’s working out. In the meantime enjoy her first claps to...

Waverly is so excited about learning to sit up all...
that she keeps doing it mid-nap in the crib and waking herself up!
My days of the 2 hour nap are over I’m afraid. Must learn to read/watchTV/shower quicker.

I turn my back for one day...
and W becomes a toddler.
Seriously. Major milestones this past week.

- Completely weaned herself from breastfeeding. She’s done…on to bottles and big girl food only.
- Finger walking 24/7. All she wants to do. Forget...

Just us two...
You Moms out there know how hard it is you get great pictures with just you and your baby that aren’t one handed cellphone pics taken in a mirror because we are usually the ones behind the camera. Well, luckily on vacation I was surrounded by some fine photographers who were gracious enough to get some great shots of me with my baby girl…
hugs and kisses W. -RW

So why haven't I been able to blog much lately?
Because I have literally become a human baby ladder.
Waverly wants to climb on me alllll day long. She doesn’t pull up on furniture (thank goodness) but now she only wants to pull up on me non-stop. She has started to really want to walk on her own and so we are probably going to be putting the walker away for good so she doesn’t get confused between walking on her own and walking...

WatchWhat I’ve found when trying to make a baby laugh: the more foolish you look the more laughs you’ll get.
For me the real winner is putting a paci in my mouth and barking like a dog. Works like a charm…

Welcome to 2011 Waverly...
This time last year I was stuffing my pregnant face and nesting like a crazy person. I was walking the mall and obsessing over your delivery and how everything would be when you arrived.
Well you’re here now and it’s already a new year. You make our lives so much richer and so much quicker. I’m racing to memorize each moment of your life as it flies by and at the same time slow...
