30 weeks

I remember being pregnant at 30 weeks... It seemed as if the pregnancy had gone by so slow and here I had another 2 1/2 mo to wait. I was getting impatient to meet this little bundle of blessings that had begun to turn my womb into a jungle gym. It's endearing now to see her energy and then recall how she had spurts of activity before she was born. She would go into fits of kicking, rolling, punching, and all sorts of exercise, mostly right before bed (of course), and keep at it for a good hour or more. And now to see her so active and remember those times are so sweet.

Major developments this week: she is starting to use gestures more. Reaching for mommy or daddy, jabbering with her hands, or to indicate excitement. She is also showing interest in putting things places, such as her toys back in the bucket or her paci in her mouth; she is especially interested in sharing her paci or whatever she is playing with-- she doesn't get why mommy and daddy don't want her deliciously slobbery paci or block in their mouths too...

She is still eating like a little champion athlete. Anything and everything, even if there's a face to go along with it. She has discovered how much fun celery is to chew on. She's entertained for awhile during dinner prep. Such a good chew toy :)

She is officially in 12 mo clothes. And could stand to be in 18 mo... *Tear* mommy's baby girl is growing too too fast.
