What can I say about this angel babe??? She has continued to explode developmentally over this past month! She is crawling on all 4's...still on her tummy to go super fast, pulling to stand on EVERYTHING, starting to cruise, and finally able to get herself down from standing. She is go, go, go and can not sit still. She has pulled the plant over, tries to stand and lean out of the tub, leans over her crib and crawls over anything or anyone in her way. She is soooo funny to watch. She waves 'Hi" and now is saying "hi" very intelligibly too! Her " mamama" and "dadada" seem a little less purposeful, but the Hi is for real. She is starting to have more stranger anxiety, but sure is loving towards us! Elie has started to scream when she is mad at Jack (usually he is all over her) and definitely has her moods (just like her dad :)) She is eating solids like a champ, and may be weaning herself :( She still breastfeeds a few times a day, but has a very hard time concentrating on it. She dances, seems to "sing" along to music and loves reading stories with Jack and mama. She wakes up anywhere from 2-5 times a night, and needs help to get back asleep. Her napping is totally inconsistent, usually very short ones for me and long ones for anyone else who takes care of her. I just can't believe her first birthday is only a couple of months away :( This little girl is truly one of three best things to ever happen to me, and even though I have my hard times as a mom, there is not a night that goes by that I don't thank God for her, her personality, and her soul.
