Since the last post, we have all been adjusting to mommy working nights! The good thing about being on nights is that mommy can stay home with Jessyka all day... who needs sleep anyway! :) The term: sleep when they sleep is so true but what if they don't sleep?! Daddy to the rescue! We have learned to take shifts.

New thing learned: Peek-a-boo! Jessyka has learned to put her bib over her face and drop it in the effort of playing peek-a-boo. She did this with grandma multiple times. Sometimes she would be laughing and other times she did the stick her tongue out and laugh.

Jessyka has also decided that she doesn't really want to cry anymore.... she would rather yell! She has her happy gibberish and her mad gibberish! It's rather cute actually. A question popped into my head though.... "is it too early to teach inside voices?!" haha.

Jessyka is already turning out to be independent. She likes her alone time in her bouncy chair to play with her toys. In fact, she will yell if she isn't able to sit in it.

We are also sleeping through the night again and taking as many naps during the day as she wants. Naps seem to help her sleep better at night... go figure.

Jessyka also enjoys watching bull riding when she goes over to nana and papa's. One day when Jessyka was sitting on mommy's belly she decided to throw herself back and laughed hysterically. (Good thing mom was holding onto her). When Jessyka was asked if she was a bull rider, she threw herself backwards again still laughing hysterically. This went on for a few minutes.

Tummy time is still not one of Jessyka's favorite activities. In fact, she still hates it. Although instead of trying to crawl, she would rather do push ups. Making progress?!?!... I think so!
