So it seems like you are learning new things all the time, Grace. During this past week and weekend we celebrated the 4th of July and my birthday and went to a Berg family reunion. You didn't go see the fireworks this year, we didn't think that you would handle being up so late. You will get to see them next year for sure! On Saturday we ventured to Shabonna, IL to the family reunion. You were such a good girl and managed seeing lots of people that you don't know. We spent the night at Carl and Phoebe's and got to spend time with our family on Sunday which included time in the pool. We also surprised Grandma Cilla and went for a visit.
You love to go swimming. While we were recently at Grandma Cilla's pool, you figured out how to splash. You don't mind the water in your face at all. You weren't even afraid when she left you floating, to go rescue Bubba! Ha! Ha!
You have started to get the idea of playing peek-a-boo. We can put something over your eyes and you will pull it away for us to say "Boo!"
You enjoy playing pat-a-cake, whether it is with your feet or hands. Daddy and you play it with your feet!
You like to sit and watch "videos" on the computer. Your favorite one is by Hoopla Kids, A Phonics Song.
You figured out how to shake your rattles and make lots of noise. It was funny when you were at Grandma Pam's and were sitting in the booster seat that has a tray on it and we gave you a toy. When you were shaking it and banging it on the tray, you would grimise every time it hit the tray.
You have tried several foods from the table: mashed potatos, watermelon, jello, ice cream, cool whip, turkey, green beans, sweet potatos.graham crackers, Rice Krispies, Cheerios.
You now eat three meals a day: cereal and fruit in the morning, yogurt and fruit at lunch, and fruit and veggie at night. You have a bottle with each also. You have tried juice but aren't quite a fan yet.
You have two teeth and are currently working on more.
You love to "talk". Most of the time you wake up talking. Sometimes even in the middle of the night, in which you have learned to put yourself back to sleep. You have made sounds that resemble "mum", "da", "yum", "hi", "hey". We even think that you respond to music and start "singing."
We think that you had your first bloody nose the other night. You woke up and had blood all over your bed but the odd thing was that there was no evidence of it anywhere on you or your clothes. It was very odd and a little scary.
You have mastered sitting up. You sit for awhile and then fall over. You are still working on catching your self so that you don't topple over.
We love you tons!
