Dani's likes and dislikes

Dani's little personality is starting to come out. She delights us everyday with new developements! Some of her favorite things: Nursing is definitely number one! The look of adoration she gets on her face while nursing makes all the struggles we had at first totally worthwhile. Snuggling: Yes, Dani sleeps in bed with me. She loves to nestle in between my arm and my chest, with her arms either above her head or clasped in a praying position under her cheek. So cute!!! Also napping on people's chests like a little spider monkey tops her list for snuggle time. Her crib: She actually likes her crib, she loves to have some diaper free time in there doing tummy time or "bicycling" her legs and babbling. She even took two naps in there this week! The outdoors: Dani is outdoorsy just like her Mommy. If she is fussy, a good walk around the yard is all it takes to calm her down. Daddy's voice: She loves listening to him read to her while doing tummy time ( as long as she's eaten recently!) So far Dani has read Breaking Dawn and Timeline :) Hair washes: She closes her eyes and puts her hands behind her head in the running water.

I'm sure every baby has dislikes- here are Dani's. We are doing demand feedings with her, and thats what she does- DEMAND. If she has to wait at all for me to get my shirt ready, it screaming time! She usually wakes up from her nap "starving" so look out if she starts to wake up! Diaper changes: She loves having her diaper taken off, wiped with a warm wipey, and airing out. She does not like having her new diaper put on! I have gotten really fast with a quick jellyroll/snappi application of the diaper so that has helped. Her potty seat: She has a love/hate relationship with this thing. She went a few weeks and refused to use it, would arch and scream if I held her over it, so we ditched it and let her potty on an old prefold. Then, I learned a more comfortable way to hold her over it, and for the last week she has been pottying and pooping in it! Yesterday, she got a really snotty nose and has decided she doesn't want to go in the seat again, I think she will like it again once she feels better. ( So this morning she did her morning poopy in the bathroom sink! My Mom was not thrilled since it is right next to her toothbrush haha!!) Baths: Hit or miss, sometimes she is great, other times it like she is saying " This was NOT on my list of things to do today!" Her stroller and car seat: Since she can't be snuggled or fed while in either of these, she HATES both of them.

We are all having fun getting to know Dani, and can't wait to see what she is going to do next!
