Hi Shira,
I can't believe how long it's been since I wrote here. You've really changed a lot since january 4. You've gotten much bigger, of course. But you're also behaving much differently, too. You are able to stand pretty well (supported, of course) and are becoming quite the little babbler. Your favorite time for orating is in the morning when you wake up. You've gone back and forth with your sleeping habits with some periods of sleeping pretty solid during the night to other times when you still wake for feeding on a 3-4 hour interval.
You have spent some time in the 'play center' as we call it. It's a little thing that you can stand in and has some toys for you to be entertained with while you're there. You were actually making some noise with the roller thing the other day. I'm not sure you're actually reaching for the items but you are sort of swatting at them.
And you are very interested in your big sister. You seem to know that her status in the tribe is more like yours than it is like ours. You watch her like a hawk. You've even begun taking your bath with Sidra. You certainly aren't equal play partners in the bath but you are in the water at the same time. But you also watch us pretty carefully too and are mesmerized by the TV when it is on.
The video is a little bit of tummy time where you pick your head up and some happy talk.
Love, Aba
