Sometimes I feel like I can't keep up with everything I want to write down about Maggie. To make it easy on myself since I missed so much time since the last time I posted I'm just going to make a list.
- First concert! We went to see the 4th of July Spectacular at the Hollywood Bowl. I spent the first half of the show feeding her and the second half walking her around in the stroller.
- First time in the pool! :) We got her a baby floaty with a little sunshade and she just loved it. She stayed in there with us for over an hour just kicking her little legs the whole time and didn't get fussy or bored. Also we got her a pink polka-dotted swimsuit with a tutu. Heehee.
- First time to the beach! She sat on the towel with me for a while and took a little nap, then Marlon took her to splash around in the water.
- She learned to crawl up stairs at my mom's house (we don't have any) and also get up into a standing position by herself.
- She no longer eats everything we feed her and is starting to be picky (bad baby!) Right now she doesn't like blueberries at all, even though she used to eat them. I think we gave her too many of them and she got tired of them. She won't even eat blueberry yogurt, but nonfat plain yogurt is okay. She also won't eat mangoes! But, apparently pureed bok choy is fine with her.
- She had her first fever (poor baby!) The thing is, she was acting fine even though she was blazing hot - 102.6 so I'm not sure what happened. We called the doctor's and gave her some baby Advil and she was fine the day after.
- She feeds herself food now - cheerios, blueberries (before she decided she didn't like them anymore), carrot and zucchini pieces. And she picks up her sippy cup on her own and drinks out of it when she is thirsty too.
- So far she hasn't been attached to any toy in particular but when she saw Cookie Monster it was love at first sight :)
Oh yeah, so moving onto a different topic, our rental car got broken into and Marlon's iphone was stolen. We had left the kids with my parents and gone for dinner out in West Hollywood at a nice restaurant. We discovered the damage after dinner and made a detour to the LAPD to file a police report. The officer there basically knew every option available on an iPhone as well as the replacement cost of each because they get stolen so often.
Me: Is the street we were parked on a common area to get your car broken into?
Officer: All of Los Angeles is a common area for cars to get broken into.
Marlon: You seem to know a lot about the iPhone.
Officer: Yeah...well, whenever Apple releases a new product or version, people will be lining up over there to buy it...and then they'll be lining up here to report it after getting jacked.
So I have basically given up on running for the forseeable future. I'm thinking about going back to the doctor because my foot is not getting better. I seem to have aggravated it on the trip by just being on my feet a lot more than I would normally - going to the mall, beach, museum, etc. Boooooo.
