Sitting in the Sassy Seat

Evie and I ran a few errands this morning. Carl has been dying for Evie to get a little bouncy seat that you hang in the doorway. Hudson had one when Carl was at Pawleys and seemed to really like it. I got one called the Sassy Seat - perfect for Evie! She likes it but does not love it which surprises me since she kicks so much. We get comments constantly about how much she kicks from strangers. Comments like she's really going to take off one day, or she's not going to walk she will run etc. So, we thought she'd love the thing. We will keep trying but I kept the receipt just in case.

Evie took a really long nap this afternoon. It was in two parts because she had another crying spell in the middle of her nap. She got caught in the crib slats and could not get her hands out. Mommy to the rescue and she went back to sleep for another 1.5 hours. She is doing better with her sleeping now that she has ocean waves playing all night and I am really loading her up with babyfood. She can put it away so maybe she is a big eater like her Mama!

Lindsay gave me a new recipe to try and let me tell you it is delicious! Not to mention easy. I was able to prepare it with Evie perched on my hip.
