Before I Forget

This is a completely random post, but I wanted to jot a few things down before I forget.  We go to Belle's 4 month check up today, so I'll let everyone know how it goes!  Our daughter has been so funny lately.  Some days she is all about Mommy, and other days she only has eyes for Daddy.  For example, on Sunday when she was laying down and doing the usual aerobics, she would only look at me.  As soon as I walked away Belle would turn her head and follow me with her eyes while I left the room.  Then, on Monday night she only cared about Daddy.  Sean put his face really close to her and she literally swatted and tried to grab at his beard with her sweet little hand for at least 25 minutes.  Also, I'm sure she knows who we are now because this Easter weekend when members of our extended family wanted to hold her she cried every single time.  We used to be able to pass her off to anyone, but that was before she was aware of what was going on.  Now only me, Sean, and the grandparents are able to hold her.  We are going to have to work on that for sure!  This may be TMI, so if poop scares you stop reading now.  This morning I got Belle out of her crib to change her and dress her for the day.  She was her usual happy self and was cooing and kicking away.  I always put a clean diaper under her before I take off the old one.  Well, today just as I got done with the baby wipes and was about to put the new diaper on it happened.  She pooped with so much force that the diaper could not catch it and it went everywhere!  I'm talking the changing pad, the changing table, the dresser beside the changing table, and even the carpet!  It shocked me so much that I even woke Sean up to see what had just occurred (and to help me clean up :-).  Belle was so happy with herself that it made us both laugh.  She immediately started smiling and blowing bubbles.  So this is our life now, quality family time at 5:30 in the morning!

Belle and her Daddy, she is holding her head up now!
