Summer Lovin'

I've completely lost track of how many weeks Maribelle is at this point, but it's safe to say she's a little more than 3 1/2 months old now. We just can't believe how fast time has gone and how big she's gotten! The weather has been absolutely beautiful (and sticky!) the past few days, so Maribelle's been sporting her best summertime attire. And after keeping Maribelle in little more than a onesie this past weekend, I now have a whole new reason to love summer ... being able to see her yummy baby legs, arms and toes!!

With the nice weather, we've been putting the Baby Bjorn to good use. It was a lifesaver this past week and helped me get through a week's worth of Maribelle's growth spurt crankiness. When nothing else would stop her from fussing, I would load her up in the Baby Bjorn, pop a pacifier in her mouth and pace the sidewalks. Within minutes she would be out like a light. She even got to enjoy her first game of Corn Hole from the coziness of the Baby Bjorn.
