The Dean Scene: Catchin Up

Summer is going great! I am loving being a stay at home mom. Bailey gets a little bored of me through out the day but is also loving being with momma so much! I think she used to be so dang excited to see my when I got home because I was someone new to entertain her, but now it's like "Oh you again" However when I try to pass her off to Jared she usually just wants me again.
She is definitely getting used to her new freedom. It took her awhile to realize hey I can go to the next room and explore there even if mom doesn't come too. She usually pops her head back around the corner though to make sure I am still where she left me. I give her about a minute and then go check to see what she is up to! She loves to climb now too. If I'm holding her and there is something behind me she is stretching and reaching for whatever she can get a hold of. I recently took her to see her friend Colton and my friend Casey. Casey asked me "Is she always this busy? Does she ever stop moving?" Colton can sit quietly playing for long periods of time- not Bailey she is constantly on the move! Sometimes I wish I could surround her with toys and just watch her play.
Bailey is slowly moving away from purees and is now eating a lot of table foods. Tonight she had macaroni, Angus beef pure hotdog bits, and peas. She gobbled it all up! She was smacking her tray and just having a great ol' time!
Kyleigh was here this weekend and we had a great time! We took the girls swimming at the local pool and they both loved the water! I am so glad Bailey is so comfortable in the pool. Father's Day was a lot of fun too. We had a fantastic lunch at the in-law's house and just enjoyed one another! This evening the breeze was blowing so hard and it felt like we were sitting by the beach. I gave Bailey a frozen teething ring and she actually sat still in my lap as we swung out on the back porch for about 30 minutes. Oh yea- She is finally really teething! She def has a white lump on her left lower gum and she has been extra fussy! Oh how I don't want this summer to end! We get Kyleigh for the month of July and we are def looking forward to that. Bailey loves having her to play with. I swear no one can make her laugh like Kyleigh can! I think we are planning to go to the beach at the end of July. And in the next week or so we are going to make our way to San Angelo to visit the Parker Peeps! Can't wait! (Im hoping the kids help entertain her) ;)
