You got your second tooth about a week after your first broke through. I thought it was impossible, but your smile is even cuter now with two tiny little white teeth peeking through.
You are getting better and better at feeding yourself little bite sized things - pancake, watermelon, Cheerios. You don't have the thumb and pointer finger pincer grasp yet; instead, you take it in the palm of your hand and slowly open your hand over your mouth. It's not too efficient, half the time the item falls, but like I said, you're getting better at it. What's funny is that you often grab like 3 or 4 things to put in your mouth, which is even messier. Leia and Winston know to sit by you when we feed you now!
You've been pulling yourself up to standing for a while now. Lately you've been walking around the coffee table, and pushing TV trays and walking. We decided that wasn't entirely safe, so we bought you a toy that's meant to help you walk. You got it right away. You're still a little wobbly and occasionally walk sideways like you've been drinking, but like everything, you're getting better and better as you practice.
You continue to be a happy, well behaved little girl. We love to take you out in public because you get so much attention. People are constantly telling us how beautiful you are. They like your hair and eyes/eyelashes the most. Daddy and I constantly wonder how we got so lucky that YOU are our baby girl. I'm beginning to believe that good things do indeed come to those who wait.
I love you,
Mommy
