Fall Journal

She loves her baby.
Wow! The last few months have slipped away so fast.  Here are a few memorable things about Jayda over fall months.
 

1) We got her a potty chair, which she totally loves.  She doesn't really use it yet, but she loves to sit on it in the nude and make grunting sounds.  Some times these grunting sounds make her toot.  Oh, it is so funny!

2) Since Jayda was a small baby we have tried to get her to take showers, but she was not interested.  Well, the other day Daddy was showering and she decided to join him.  She loved it!  She pooped in the shower twice and each time she got so mad at me when I took her out to clean up the poop.  Now we have to be sneaky with showering, unless we have the time for her to hop in with us.  The last time she showered with me she didn't poop, but she did want me to shave her arm pits.  Kids are always watching us.




3) We took Jayda to a cider mill that had a great petting/feeding zoo.  There were chickens, sheep, pigs, rabbits, and goats.  Jayda loves the rabbits, but the other animals made her very nervous. The funniest thing was that she was terrified of the FAKE life size cows.  One of the fake cows was shaped like a bench so I sat on it while holding her.  She literally jumped off my lap and cried as she ran away from me.


















4) Due to lack of time I sometime exercise in the morning while Jayda is awake.  It is difficult to do because she gets in the way, but she is so cute that I can't get mad at her.  She wants to do bicep curls like I do, but she can't lift the weighs off the floor, which she finds very frustrating.  However she is really good at doing push ups with me. She gets on her hands and knees, keeps her butt in the air as she brings her nose to touch the carpet. Her favorite exercise is jumping jacks. She doesn't get off the floor at all, but she puts in a good effort.

 Our good friends Jackson and Cara came to visit us from Texas, with their twin babies Whitman and Edith.  Since they left, she loves taking care of her baby.  We often find her wiping, feeding, or giving her binky to the baby.





We did lots of berry picking over the summer and fall.  Just like her Daddy her favorite was raspberry picking. 


Showing her friend Ethan how cool she can be.




At the cider mill there is a corn box instead of a sand box.  She loved it.

It is amazing how much corn she could fit in her diaper.





She was to afraid to venture in to the hay hut, but enjoyed climbing it.

She was freezing, but did not want to stop riding the wagon.
