Not Just For Boys
Of the toys Alyssa is playing with here in Missouri, this truck filled with interlocking blocks is her favorite!! This morning when I brought her into the living room to play she looked at the truck and a bright smile spread across her face. Check out the teeth on that girl!

Signing Off
I have decided to stop blogging on here. Don't worry....I am still blogging and uploading pictures.....just not to this site. There are many reasons for this change. 1. I can do so much more on Shutterfly with pictures. 2. I mainly upload pictures, and this is not a great blog site to do that. 3. Friends and family can buy a photo on Shutterfly if they want to. 4. many more
So, with that said, things are the same on the other site. I still post things about what we are doing as well as pictures. In fact there are probably already 50-75 pictures on the site in photo albums that you can browse.
Finally, I have emailed all of the blog readers that I had email addresses for. However, if you read the blog and want to be included in the new one.....email me your name and address. I would love to include you!! I didn't exclude you, I just didn't have your email address.
With that said, this will be the last post on blogger. I will close this account by next Wednesday (8/19).
You can email me at rgtompkins@gmail.com
I look forward to hearing from you!

PUSH!!
We bought a car seat net that goes over her car seat to protect against bugs (we have West Nile in the area) and it also has a 98% UV protection flap. We went to the park today and she LOVED pushing against the net with her feet. That's what she is doing in the picture.
Tomorrow is her four month appointment. I dread these because she gets shots, but I enjoy finding out her weight and height and how she is doing. I bought rice cereal today because I am guessing that is what the Dr. will recommend to get her to sleep through the night. She slept for five and a half hours last night, which is better than it had been going. I will let you know how everything goes tomorrow!!

Bow-N-Beanie
My all time favorite purchase from the bow party the other evening is by far this crocheted beanie!! I bought this pink one and a white one. I can't wait for the weather to cool down just so she can wear them. Her little bald head might get cold here during the WV winter outings. The bow is interchangeable. I can put ANY bow on it. I'm super excited about this one! Even Dustin likes it, but he is all about the beanies....or toboggan as they say here in WV.
Alyssa is sleeping right now (of course she is, that's the only time I blog). She has been sleeping every morning around 9am. She almost makes it an hour each time! We are making progress toward a schedule. However, she is still waking up at night. Last night it was a long night. She woke up every three hours. Many nights she sleeps for five hours and then every three hours, but last night she didn't even go five hours. I'm so confused though because she has gone for seven and nine hour stretches at night before. We go to her four month appointment next week, so I'm writing down all my questions about sleep and hopefully he can give me some advice. I'm kind of expecting him to advise us to feed her formula and rice before bed time. We will see. He may also suggest that we let her "cry it out". Hmmmmmmm. That will be a tough one!
