Gymb.oree Class!

Oops, I did it! I didn't mean too, it just sort of happened. I signed up for gymbor.ee classes!! I went to their open house and it was like a time share deal where they seduce you with a good deal(I just couldn't say no!!)

Oh well! Allura had such a great time I couldn't dissapoint her right?? Ha ha!! I figure I can keep her enrolled for a few months and then sign her up her mommy and me swim lessons later on. And eventually onto dance lessons (ok I am getting a few years ahead of myself) It is so awesome to actually watch her learn! I am loving this stage in her life right now.

6 months old!







Oh Baby Girl, you will be 6 months old on Saturday the 11th. I can't believe it. You are such a blessing to Daddy and me!
Baby Girl has started teething. Her bottom two front teeth are popping out, and hurting Mommy every so often. I try not to freak out when she bites during breastfeeding, but ouch!! Luckily she doesn't do it very often; I think we might have passed this stage!
I can't wait to start feeding her solid foods. I went to the farmers market and picked up a bunch of fruits and veggies. I am going to try and feed her all homemade baby food. Instead of buying cookbooks, I checked some out from the library and made copies (also there are a ton of websites you can print recipes out from). I only paid 2 dollars instead of 20 for the books!
Also I started taking Allura to our local library for baby reading time. It is AWESOME! I HIGHLY recommend this if your local library (or even try a surrounding city) offers these types of classes. They read stories, sing songs and rhymes, and have toys and parachute time. Allura loved it. She is not used to being around other babies, so it was great to see her interact with everyone. I also met some very cool ladies!
I am also thinking of signing up for a stroller workout class. It is really hard to get a work out in with a 6 month old. This way she can come with me. It would also force me to do it, which is what I need!!
Hope everyone is doing great!!!!!
