too big, much too fast!

as if eating cereal and sleeping through the night werent accomplishments enough this week, Sicilya decided there were a few more things she wanted to add in.  im not sure if this is her way of distracting me from the fact that tuscan is starting school in less than a week, but even if it is...its not making any of these growing up things any easier to handle!

yesterday we officially declared her a thumb sucker!!  she has been making attempts to suck on her fingers when she is hungry for quite sometime now, but its become more than just that!  now when we check on her at night, she is peacefully asleep...with her thumb in her mouth!  she looks super cute - although i of course have my long term concerns!  none of the boys were ever binkie babies, nor did they ever suck their thumbs...they love their NieNie's (blankies) but i never had to worry about anything that could get hard to give up as they got older.  a blanket is a blanket, they dont leave the house - a binkie hanging out of your mouth when you are two years old and trying to talk through it, that was never something i wanted to deal with!  but i guess ill worry about the future when it gets here and for now i will love how absolutely adorable Sicilya looks with her little thumb safe in her mouth!

(not sure why its loading sideways - but you get the idea!!)

Sicilya has also really been enjoying her tummy time, holding her head up, reaching for her toys...tonight i laid her on her belly in her crib while i put the boys to bed.  when i went back to her room to put her jammies on her, she was still laying the same way looking at her little stuffed giraffe.  i turned my back for 2 seconds to grab a onsie from the drawer and in that time, she rolled over - from her belly to her back!!  and she just thought she was the coolest girl ever, she had the biggest smile of pride on her face! she is just simply amazing!!
