She is becoming a very able crawler, but her preference it to hold hands and stand so she can practice walking. She is also straightening her legs in downward dog position and lifting one arm to try to get herself to a standing position. It would not surprise me if she is an early walker. But, we will see.
She continues to be a very happy, chatty and cheerful baby. Much to my heartfelt joy, she loves books. She will sit and read a half dozen or more board books at a time with full concentration. She loves flap books and lifting to see what is behind. She turns the pages and has her favorite books to read. She has a touch and feel Peter Rabbit flap book she loves and will always kiss the bunny on the cover when we finish reading.
She is starting to make word connections and you can see that she is understanding some of the things we say to her now. She loves to clap and cheer for herself when she does something we ask like wave or crawl to us.
She adores her big brother, and he is always ready to cheer her or make her laugh. He takes his role of watching out for her very seriously and prides himself on being a good big brother. And she brings out the silly side in our wonderfully serious little boy. So far, they are a great complement to each other.
We love her more and more each day, and we are so happy she is part of our family.
