4 mdr/months

Isabella er i dag 4 mdr gammel og er begyndt at kunne rigtig meget. Hun elsker at ligge paa et taeppe og lege med sine rangler, eller at sidde i "exersauceren" - en ring hvor hun sidder i midten med legetoej rundt om sig. Hun kan raekke ud efter legetoejet nu og rulle om paa siden. Hun kan naesten rulle om paa maven, hvis det ikke var for albuen der altid sidder i vejen:-)

Isabella kan ogsaa snakke - og hun snakker hoejt. Meget hoejere end Emma gjorde da hun var i den alder:-)

Meeen hun vil stadig aller helst sidde ved mor og spise - og hun elsker at falde i soevn i mors arme og hygge hygge hygge. Heldigvis er hun begyndt at sove en lille lur om morgenen i hendes krybbe, saa mor her kan faa lavet lidt og lege med Emma, saa naar det er tid til hygge har jeg ogsaa roen til det:-)

Emma er som saedvanlig fraek og fyldt med krudt i rumpen - det virker nogle dage som om hun har dobbelt portion energi, hvilket baade kan vaere utroligt charmerende og droen irriterende. (lige nu rutsjer hun med hovedet ned af. tsk tsk - heldigvis er rutsjebanen ikke saerlig lang og ned paa graes).
Hendes seneste ide er at boevse - hvorefter hun kigger paa mig med et lille smil, holder haanden op for munden og siger "boevs" og griner. Lidt svaert at sige at hun ikke maa, naar man selv smiler.

Her er lidt billeder fra den sidste maaned i sommervarmen:-)

Isabella is 4 months today and she is starting to do a lot on her own. She loves lying on a blanket playing with her rattle or sitting in the exersaucer - reaching for her toys. She can roll unto her side - and if it wasn't for her elbow she would be able to roll on the stomach as well:-)

Isabella can talk now - and she talks LOUD. Much louder than Emma did her age:-)

BUUT she still prefers to sit with mommy and eat - and she loves falling asleep on mommy and snuggle snuggle snuggle. Thankfully she has started to nap a bit in the morning in her room, so that mommy here can get a little bit done and take time to play with Emma, so that when Isabella wants to snuggle I have the patience for it. 

Emma is naughty and filled with energy as always - I swear some days it feels like she has double the energy, which can be very charming and extremely irritating at the same time. (Right now she is going down the slide head first - thankfully it is a very small slide and it is on grass)
Her latest idea is to burp, then look at me with a crooked smile, cover her mouth with her hand and say "boevs" (burp in Danish) whereafter she laughs. A bit hard to correct when I'm smiling as well.

Here are some pictures from the last month in the summer heat:-)

  

Isabella 3 mdr/3 mths

I tirsdags blev Isabella 3 mdr gammel og det fejrede vi ved at faa hende vaccineret. ha ha ha. Sygeplejersken var rigtig godt tilfreds med hende, da hun er godt med mht. motorikken. Hun kan holde sin rangle, kigge paa sine haender, genkende mor og nogen gange farmand og graeder helt vild hvis hun bliver holdt af nogen hun ikke kender.

Hun kan sige "gry" eller nogen i den retning og hendes yndlings beskaeftigelse er stadig at sidde ved mor og spise hvis hun kan komme afsted med det.

Sygeplejersken grinte ogsaa lidt da Isabella er lidt over gennemsnittet med hendes hoejde, noget over med hoved stoerrelsen og meget over med vaegten. Ja hun er en lille tyksak:-)

Emma har smidt bleen undtagen naar hun sover, hvilket gaar saadan nogen lunde. Hun har tisset nogle faa gange paa potten og er ellers rigtig god til at tisse i bukserne lige efter hun har vaeret paa potten. Men det har ogsaa kun vaeret en uge saa mon ikke det kommer??

En af grundene til at vi besluttede os for at proeve at smide bleen nu er fordi vi har haft det mest fatastiske vejr i den sidste uge, og det er altsaa lidt nemmere hvis hun tisser i bukserne udenfor end herinde.

Emma er besat af tog. Hun kan hoere om et tog kommer og hun snakker ikke om andet end: traaaaiiin, train coming.

Aaron har vaeret rigtig flittig i den sidste tid. Han har lavet sandkasse til Emma i haven og et laekkert lae hegn til terassen, saa vi kan sidde i ro og mag paa terassen uden at nysgerrige naboer kigger over hegnet:-). Jeg har faaet saaet vores lille have til, saa nu glaeder vi os bare til at det begynder at spirre.

Isabella turned 3 months on Tuesday last week and we decided to celebrate by having her vaccinated. Ha ha ha. The nurse was very pleased with her development: she can now hold her rattle, look at her hands, recognize mom and sometimes daddy, and cries hysterically if someone she does not know holds her. She can say "gri" or something like that and her favorite activity is still sitting on mommy, preferably eating. 

The nurse laughed when she saw her chart, as Isabella is just over average for her height, a bit over for her head circumference and way over for her weight. Yep she is a little chubster:-) 

Emma started potty training last week, and is only wearing diapers when she sleeps. So far it is okay. She has peed a few times on the potty, but mostly she pees  in her pants just after she has been on the potty. But it has only been a week, so hopefully she will get it eventually, right?

Emma is obsessed with train. All she can talk about is `traaaaiin, train is coming`. 

One of the reasons we decided to potty train now is because of the beautiful weather we have had. It is so much easier to deal with wet pants outside than on our hardwood floors. 

Aaron has been very active these last couple of weeks, making a sandbox for Emma and making a privacy screen for the patio, so we no longer have nosy neighbors looking at us. I have planted the garden, so now we are just waiting for it all to grow:-)
