Miss R's world

It seems like Miss R is growing by leaps and bounds. She is a funny, funny girl who rarely cries and constantly smiles. The laugh we have grown to love happens often and is music to my ears. The best is when Miss C gets her going and the two them interact. R roars with laughter at her sister. It is wonderful.

R has been doing so many things lately it's hard to capture them all. She's sitting pretty much all on her own for extended periods of time. She loves this new perspective and spends so much time reaching and grabbing at her toys and exploring all that is around her.

Her feet continue to be one of her favorite things and her toes are constantly in her mouth. There's also this musical set of bongos that she is fascinated with and she loves to bang on them so they play music.

Pulling things up to her face continues to be a soothing method for her and while she does use the paci it's not all the time. Since she is teething there's a lot of drooling and shoving things into her mouth.

While she can roll over, both ways, she doesn't very often. When she slepts it's on her side but she doesn't roll all the way over. She's also mastered moving herself around in circles if she's on her belly or her back to get where she wants to go.

We recently started real food and while the rice cereal and oatmeal seemed to make her constipated, she has gobbled up the sweet potatoes and squash. I am trying to make all her baby food. Right now the freezer contains multiple varieties of squash and I just bought a ginormous sweet potato to cook up. I made food for C but did not solely give her homemade food. I might try that this time around.
