Skylar's Nursery

I have been meaning to post pics of Skylar's nursery for months.  She is 8 months old now and it has been finished for... 8 months.  Our theme was lavender & butterflies. It is so pretty and I wish we spent more time there.  We are usually downstairs.   Patrick built the bookshelf himself to match Leila's.  He also refinished the chest of drawers and the changing table.  He is amazing!

Skylar is crawling really fast now, pulling up on everything and trying to walk.  She likes to push baby strollers and such.  She is so active.  I have been meaning to work on sign language with her--we used it with Leila and it was so helpful.  Somehow we get too busy but I work on the words I remember.  She loves to eat and especially likes those Gerber puffs and melts.  She kinds gets hysterical over them, actually.  So far she likes everything now, even avocado.  I learned she just does not like it pureed, she likes chunks.  She is having a tough time with digestion so we are taking solids kind of slow. 

My two girls LOVE each other. It is really sweet to watch. Skylar laughs at everything Leila does. Leila always makes her smile, and tries hard to make her laugh. She makes silly faces and will entertain her when I have the baby in her highchair while I cook. Sometimes it keeps her from screaming... sometimes not. "Skylar the Screamer" is going to haunt her.
