Wordless Wednesday

I am copying your idea Alisa! :)

Beautiful Weekend

The weather in Savannah was absolutely gorgeous this weekend and we definitely took advantage of it! Friday, we went down to Hogans' Marina where we keep our boat. We had hopes of taking Waverly on a boat ride but it was too chilly & windy. So, we decided to go have lunch and Waverly was just loving all of the attention! Several people came up to us to say how cute Waverly was. She really is the best baby in the whole world! Saturday, we had swimming lessons with her buddy, Hadley, and were kind of disappointed that we didn't have our same instructor, Melissa. She was really great and really got to know the babies. After swimming lessons we met our friends, Alan & Josie, at the boat to try again to take a cruise. The wind was only blowing 5-10 mph and the temperature was warmer. Waverly put on her life jacket and didn't complain and we headed down Turner's Creek. She was starting to get slightly cranky but as soon as we started moving the hum of the motor put her right to sleep. We rode over to Daufuskie Island and had lunch at Marshside Mama's! Waverly fell right asleep on the way back and it made Stuart & I feel so good that she is going to feel relaxed and comfortable on the boat.

Today, we worked in the yard and cleaned the house! We had such a great spring break and hate to go back to work tomorrow! :(

Catch Up

I am sorry I have not posted in a while! Waverly's social calendar has been very busy! We went home to Elizabeth City last week for Easter & had a great time! On Friday, we had lunch at Papaw & Meme's house! We stayed at Teeny & Bubba's house and Teeny made the best dinner! GranDana, GanGan, Spencer, Aunt Mary, Uncle Rob, Liza, Uncle Matthew, & Blair were there. We had such a blast and Waverly just loves the attention from her family! Next, we had an Easter egg hunt at the Weeks's house and lunch afterwards. More of Waverly's friends were there and they helped her to get a few eggs in her basket. That evening Waverly & her big cousin, Liza, had the best time playing in the tub with each other! Look below for the video! Sunday, we went to church and Stuart took Waverly up to place flowers on the cross. It was so sweet and Stuart is such a loving father & he absolutely adores his baby girl. Aunt Mary prepared a delicious lunch after church! Mary is so thoughtful and even got matching outfits for Waverly & Liza!

Week in Review

Waverly had a great first St. Patrick's Day! First, we went over to her buddy Hadley's house to watch the parade on t.v. Going downtown with all of the craziness with 2 infants was not a very good idea. We then went to lunch and did a little shopping at the mall. It was a great day! Stuart was in Florida on a scuba diving trip, so GranDana & GanGan came down to visit us. We went to swimming lessons and they were able to see my little fish in action. So far, GranDana, GanGan, Papaw, & Meme have all seen Waverly at swimming lessons. Now, we need to get Teeny & Bubba down here too. :) This week at swimming lessons we worked on using life jackets, which is very useful for Waverly! Especially, since she will be out on the boat as soon as the weather gets a little warmer.

First tooth!!

It's official!!!! Waverly has her first tooth finally starting to come through! She woke up last night at 11 p.m. and was crying and very fussy (very out of character)! Stuart tried to soothe her back to sleep without any luck. He brought Waverly to me & after a dose of Tylenol and nursing her, she fell asleep. Poor Stuart slept on the couch until about 3 a.m. and the guest room until 6:30. He said he did not want to disturb her after she fell asleep. Waverly & I are so lucky to have him! I don't know what we would ever do without him!

Waverly was in betters spirits this morning, had a great day, and by this afternoon there it was......a tiny piece of a tooth popping out!!! Once again, Stuart saved the day and went to the pharmacy to get Waverly some teething tablets that have helped tremendously! She is back to her old self tonight. As soon as I can catch a picture of her tooth with the camera I will be sure to post it!

2nd Week of Swimming Lessons

Yesterday was Waverly's second week of swimming lessons! We practiced kicking while on our tummies, going underwater, "jumping" in from the side, and we added floating on our backs this week. Waverly did so well and goes non-stop during her 45-minute lesson. She is kicking, splashing, and "talking" the whole time! We look forward to swimming class every Saturday.

Waverly is also back on her schedule of sleeping through the night. Around 6 months she started to wake up once during the night to nurse, and she has sporadically been doing so ever since. Well, for the last week she hasn't woken up once and is back to her old self. She goes to bed around 8:00 and sleeps until 6:30. Stuart & I know we are very lucky to have such a good sleeper, good eater, and just all around happy baby.

Swimming Lessons

Waverly had her first swimming lesson at the Aquatic Center this Saturday! She did so well and absolutely LOVED the water! She was kicking, splashing, and laughing the entire time. Her friend, Hadley, was there with her and the girls had so much fun. We did a few different exercises with her teacher and then had free play time for the last fifteen minutes. Waverly swam around on her tummy kicking, went underwater, and "jumped" off the side of the pool into the water. She was exhausted by the time we were finished and fell asleep before we could even leave the Aquatic Center's parking lot! We are so happy that we signed her up and can't wait for next Saturday!
