Tummy time, v.2.0

Addy is working on practicing her "four-point" stance this week. This morning she was on her hands and knees on her mat, with Miss Cindy's hand helping to support her tummy, but she got too excited about grabbing a toy in front of her and reached with both hands. Fortunately Cindy kept Addy from learning about gravity the hard way.

Yesterday was the first real day of doing repeated consonants--mostly "bababa," but there is also the occasional "dadada" or "mamama" too. Before now Addy has mostly just done random jibber-jabbers and lots of raspberries.

And lastly, Addy is starting to dabble in that really annoying phase of baby-dom: "I do it." This week it's been a lot of helping hold the bottle. Only, because she's teething, she likes to push and pull the bottle along her gums.
