This is what you get when you try to feed a tired baby. I don't think she particularly liked this blend of "Chicken Noodle Dinner" and so she would try to block it with her hands. Then she would promptly rub her messy hands all over her eyes because she was so tired. By the end of the feeding this is what she looked like. You can't really tell from the picture, but it is also in her hair. She may look happy now, but she was a real grump when I tried to clean it all off.
Here are two short clips of our day yesterday. Ainsley's first and only word on command is, "Da Da." It's really cute and makes Tom really happy. She cries "Mama" when she is in her crib or wants me to pick her up. But she won't repeat it when asked yet. The second clip is of my horrible singing (please ignore) But Ainsley and I sing songs all day, especially while she eats as a way to distract her. Well, I have discovered that she recognizes and likes certain songs because she will smile when I start to sing them. Her favorite seems to be "Itsy Bitsy Spider" because of the actions. But when I am feeding her, I can't do the actions with her, so she has started to do them herself.

I LOVE the messy face! Something to look forward to for sure! James is already trying to teach Hannah to say "Dada" and is sure that it will be her first word! He doesn't know that I say "Mama" to her all day long--a few more months of conditioning and I'm hoping to win! Can't wait to see you guys!
Cute! Mike can't wait until Ella says dada and is asking for him. And I love the messy face!
The green on her forehead really brings out her eyes! I can see this being a new makeup trend! Are you thawing out up there yet?
So cute! The smile on her face when you start to sing is adorable! They are growing up so fast, aren't they!
so sweet! I love listening to baby words. K. loves that song right now too. It's the only way I can get her to hold still while I clip her fingernails (Lckily she doesn't try to do the actions then!
That picture cracks me up!! Such a cutie- can't wait to see you guys
She is so cute. She has the cutest smile. Nate said that Tom had an interview in Dayton? Are you guys staying in Indiana? Either way it will be cool to see you guys and your little girl.
That picture is so priceless! What a cutie pie. And I love the video. She is so animated!
