I was watchign you play in the living room this morning and you were first sitting up, but then you really wanted your toy so as you reached and reached for it you worked your way to your belly....which you have been able to do without falling for almost a month now...this talent came early on. not too much falling over with you...you just manage to work your way from the sitting position to the belly position adn then rolly polly from there. Then the last little while you've been pulling yourself up onto your hands and knees adn I thuoght by now you would really be crawling...you so obviosuly want to...just can;t quite figure it out. nut today after you pulled your knees in under you you managed to get your arms positioned just right that you sat yourself up. I could not believe it. I've never seen a little baby do that. but you did...adn you just keep doing it. Definatly a new talent for you this month. So fun!

You have figured out how to spit. Yesterday you were trying to tell me that you didn't liek what I was feeding you and you managed to spiyt it out at me as you made your little lips vibrate. when it happened you got this kind of funny look on your face liek you had surprised yourself. well it is a new addtion to your "fun thigns you do" list. You can't stop making your lips vibrate and spitting. Your daddy was holding you tonight and he thought the whole thing was so funny. You tuck your little bottom lip under your top lip...and then come the sound effects. it is just darling. (Probably not the best thing for your little chin which was finally get past the red, dry, chapped stage)

No more work with mommy. You have finally become active enough that I just can't take you to work with me. It's been kind of hard. I miss having you there everyday. I miss your little smile. i miss having a reason to hide in my office and take a break from the day to have you eat and snuggle. I miss beign able to show you off to all of the patients. The girls miss you to. Life is just not the same without you at the office.

So close to crawling. Tonight you were rolling around in just your diaper on the floor and I think it helped that you didn;t have slipepry cloths on your little legs because you managed to get up on all fours and start rocking. You were so lcose to crawling. millie was so excited and was screaming tryign to encourgae you to crawl. You thought the whole thing was just funny and were siling and giggling so much. But in the end you mostly did a little kciking but couldn't figure out how to get your arms to mvoe so you could make it across the room. You'll be crawling before I know it.

Today you shocked me. I was getting ready to walk out the door and go to work (I think I've only left you like 2 or 3 times...ever) when I turned around to say goodbye there you were up on your little hands a knees like you were about to crawl. you've never done that before an dit only last about half a second, but the timing was perfect and I am so glad I caught a glimpse of you trying so hard to grow up.
