Nadia's first pair of blue jeans! 
Getting ready to crawl (not really, but she's getting there!)
My two favorite people sharing happy grins!
Having lunch with Mommy and Daddy at work. This week my flex time hours started, so I am now working from home on Tuesday and Wednesday mornings and Friday afternoons. That means my office hours are all day Mondays, Tues and Wed afternoons and Friday mornings - you really can't beat that! We still have Thursdays completely off! So this week we went in a little early to have lunch with Andy Tues and Wed before starting work for the day! It's a great arrangement for us all and makes me one happy mommy to get to be with my girl more every day!
Tummy time has a whole new meaning these days - it includes all kinds of play that didn't use to be possible on her tummy. She is still not rolling just all the time, but she does do it when she wants to from time to time. She's figured out how to balance herself on one arm so that she can play with the other. Today she was propping her head on one hand mimicking the pose Andy was making at the time.
She now loves to play peek-a-boo! She laughs and grins whenever we "find" her.
She's holding toys so well these days! She can even throw this ball when she sets her mind to - so we have to watch out!
We have a new set of animal puppets. Larry the Lion and Zippy Zebra bring out all kinds of happy sounds. She likes to reach up and grab their hands and hold onto them.
Look at her holding that soft block! She also found her hands this past week for really the first time. She clasps them together in front of her and just feels her fingers over and over. It looks so prim and proper when she does it!
She loves to go flying on our knees! While this face has a hint of fear to it, trust me that she loves it in small doses!
Cereal remains a fun part of every night's routine, but it's completely altered our night time sleeping patterns... and I'm not sure if it's for the better. Lately she's ready to get up for the day at 5:15 AM which is a little earlier than Mom and Dad would prefer. Today she's been having a major growth spurt wanting to eat every couple of hours and that started last night with 8:00 pm, 12:00 am, 3:00 am, 5:00 am and 8:00 am feedings... then today she decided she didn't need a nap after 9:00 AM until 5:00 PM. So I don't know if I can fully blame it on the cereal, but we hope things settle back into a routine with her sleeping and eating soon. Hard to believe it's been 17 weeks of total joy but that's really the only way to describe it - late night feedings, early mornings and poop explosions included - pure joy!
