Its official, you dont have a tooth anymore, you now have teeth!! Your bottom right/front tooth came in this afternoon just when mommy was wondering why you were so cranky. You got happy later on in the afternoon when the tooth finally popped through. We took you shopping this afternoon and got you three pairs of pj's and some food/formula. I stopped breastfeeding you a few days ago as you just wont stop biting and now that you have these very sharp teeth, I think its time.
You are really enjoying time on the floor now. We put huge blankets on the floor and you roll around and play with your toys and squeal and talk to everyone. Your favourite 'toy' is your shoes though and you can actually chew slight pieces off them so now we have to be careful which shoes we put on you. You still love the jumperoo and with mommy working nights again, daddy feeds and plays with you. You so love your daddy and you especially love it when he plays on the floor with you. You also like to sit in your swing and daddy will put treehouse on for you and you like that.
You are starting to sit up abit now, but fall over after about 10 seconds. Mommy uses a pillow behind you so you dont bang your head. You love to sit up and play your piano and when you fall over you kick the keys with your feet and think this is pretty funny.
You are quite the social butterfly when we take you out anywhere now. You love to squeal to get someones attention now and then your face just lights up and you delight them with this huge smile that reaches ear to ear. Everyone who sees you just thinks you are so adorable! Of course you are adorable, so no arguments there. Your bows look so cute in your hair, which is growing quite fast and we wonder what color it will be. Daddy thinks blond and mommy thinks your hair will be light brown.
We have been trying to think of the many many names we have for you as pet names and its funny the names we have. Daddy calls you Charlie Chadskey when we dress you up in blue jeans and its so cute!

New tooth!
On February 6th you were the proud owner of a brand new shinny baby toothie! It was on the lower left side and oh so pretty! Its nice to see you less cranky with the coming of that tooth, as it was so sad to see you unhappy. It hurts to get teeth! Mommy bought you a new toothbrush just for you with a tiny tube of baby toothpaste. You like to brush your new tooth and we are waiting for the arrival of tooth number two so you can brush two teeth!
You are really working on your fine motor skills this week. Trying to pick up the button on mommy's shirt and sometimes get frusterated when you cant get it. The concentration is unbelievable and the look on your face is priceless.
There is some other adjusting to do this week for miss princess Carly as mommy went back to work and you are not used to daddy and sister taking care of your needs. It took a few fussy days to adjust, but all is well now and you are a happy girl with spending lots of time with daddy and sister. One day daddy is going to bring you to work and you will ride the bus with mommy driving. I think you will enjoy that.
Its Valentines Day today and mommy has you dressed in a cute shirt with a heart on the front and red corderoy pants with hearts on the knees. We didnt get you a Valentine present because you are unable to have chocolate yet. You are now down for your nap and all is quiet in the house.
You still love your jumperoo and squeal with delight when daddy puts Tree House on for you. You really like the shows and will sometimes watch for 1/2 hour. Daddy said you complained the other night when one of the shows ended. I could hear you over the phone.
Daddy wants to take mommy out for a Valentines lunch when you wake up from your nap. We will see how long you sleep for as mommy has to work this afternoon. Its a longer shift so we will see how you do today. I hope you are a happy girl tonight!

Molly's Reach
Today we took a day trip over to Gibsons which is the place where they shot the TV show "The Beachcombers" Mommy and Daddy grew up watching this show and really enjoyed taking you and your sister over there today. We took a walk along the beach and took some pictures and went for a drive up island a bit for a tour. Later on we drove back to Gibsons and had a nice dinner at Molly's Reach. It was so neat to look at the old photographs of the cast of that show. Mommy took a visit there when she was young (I think around 10 or so) and there is a picture of my sister, brother and I standing in front of that restaurant. Unbelievable to go back there 35 years later with my two daughters and stand in the same spot once again. We didnt take any pictures of that spot though as it was too dark by the time we got back from our drive.
The ferry ride was only a short 40 minutes from Horseshoe bay so that was nice. I took you for a walk on the boat and showed you the sites from the windows on the boat. It was cold though and your nose was red so we didnt stay outside for long. We were disappointed when we got to the "sunshine coast" and it was cloudy and cold!!
You have been quite the grump the past week as you are really working on getting some new teeth. Your lower gums are very swollen and sooooo sore. Poor baby, it was nice to get outside today for a different view of the world and to take your mind off your owie mouth. You were so tired when we got home tonight you almost fell asleep in your jumperoo.
You tried a few new foods in the past few days. You tried peaches and chicken for the first time today and really liked the peaches. The chicken and veggie dish you werent too fussy about. You also ate an entire jar of custard the other day. Obviously you love that!! Your favourite food still by far is peas. You open your little bird mouth wide and fuss when mommy isnt feeding you fast enough. Mommy has also been busy making you a ton of hair bows for this summer! They look so cute on you too. Daddy says for me to tell you that its not his fault mommy makes you wear them.
You roll over both ways very well now and often roll right off your playmat. I think its time for a larger blanket so you dont get dirty on the floor. We went shopping this week and daddy wanted to buy you a pretty pink dress to wear this summer for your very first birthday. It was so pretty, but we decided to wait just a bit longer. Maybe something cuter will come along!
