Our sleeping baby

Jenna has switched from two naps a day to one nap. Earlier in the week she stopped wanting an afternoon nap. That made the evenings and nights not a lot of fun. So when we realized the two naps might be going we decided to try for one long afternoon nap. So for the last few days Jenna hasn't had a morning nap and has been going down around 1:30 and getting up around 3:45. With this arrangement she is still usually going to bed at 8 and getting up around 7am. This is just another step in reminding me that she is growing up and she is no longer a baby.

Mill Mountain Zoo

Today I took the day off of work and we had a mini vacation. We took Jenna to Mill Mountain Zoo. It was so hot today. We got there right after it opened. Jenna was very good looking at the animals. The animals were hot today too. Many were just laying in their cages trying to keep cool. We did see the cougar as it walked from its house to lay under a platform. We decided the next zoo should be the NC Zoo.

Growing up too fast

Jenna is becoming a very big girl. Robb and I were talking this past week and talking about how she doesn't look like a baby anymore. She is just growing up so fast. Jenna has been bottle free for a week. She is drinking her milk out of her Tommee Tippee straw cup. We thought that she was going to give us a hard time about giving up bottles but it was rather easy. We must have hit it at the right time because I've tried giving her milk in her cup at other times and she refused to drink it.

This week has also seen the appearance of tooth number 12! I can always tell when Jenna is teething because she runs a fever and just isn't herself. She doesn't make a big deal out of teething but things just aren't normal. So I'm thinking that we have two more teeth to go.

I also know that she is growing up because she has started showing her displeasure with things I make her do. Jenna has started hitting. We are working on this situation. She doesn't seem to hit Robb just me and my mom. I guess we are the people that make her do most of the things she doesn't want to.

She is growing up so fast! But we are having a great time with it!
