Lots of "milestones"...


You have just been taking on and achieving so many things I read you are supposed to be doing. Makes me wonder about babies all over the world, if they all do roughly the same things regardless of culture. So, you are getting better and better with rolling over, front to back is no problem and lighting fast, you barely even will stay on your tummy now. I've only seen you go back to front twice but am certain as soon as you really discover that you can get anywhere by doing this over and over, there will be no stopping you. You are practicing sitting lots but much prefer to stand actually. You have very strong legs and we only have to slightly hook our hands under your ams to keep you from leaning but it's all your strength keeping you upright. Your feet have finally made it to your mouth. Passing toys between your hands constantly and then studying your fingers in depth. Learning the "drop the toy over the side and Mom will pick it up" game. Two days ago blowing bubbles. Just today a weird open and closing of your mouth for a smacking/popping effect. Jibber-jabbering at some amazingly loud levels. You know what I mean when I say "shake it" and you have a rattle in hand. Definitely know the sound of water and love watching it trickle. And no matter how deep of sleep you love to flip yourself my way so we cuddle.
