Hands and knees- yes, she has figured it out. Won't be long before the little darling is crawling.
Refined motor skills- she has definitely gotten better at grabbing for things she sees, moving to them if she's not close enough, and responding to the coolness of them. She will pick at the taggies on her Taggie blanket for what seems like hours, carefully examining each one before it goes to the mouth.
Increased vocabulary- lots more syllabic sounds and vowel/consonant sounds.
Recognition- she knows her mommy by sight. She sees me and her whole face smiles. Her daddy makes her pretty happy too.
Patience- Lyssa could teach me a thing or two. On our long (long, long, long) drive to and from MN, she responded like a seasoned traveler. She alternatively played, slept, talked, ate, and charmed us with her sweetness. There were only 2 instances where she fussed and even then it was only for 5 minutes. Then she stopped, looked at me, and held onto my hand not making a peep. Sweet girl!
She has experienced her first holiday season, complete with visiting family and 13 different states. We are all looking forward to what this new year is bringing!
