I believe it's time for few updates about Anabelle and her rapidly developing skills and personality. Anabelle is getting more mobile every day, and is practically (but not quite) crawling. She rolls and pivots and pulls and drags herself across the floor with the palms of her hands... whatever it takes to get the object she's after, or to hide from us. She's always scooting herself underneath the furniture, as you see in the picture below. Actual conversation: (Ernie) "Jenny, have you seen the baby?" (Jenny) "Have you checked under the couch?" She's such a silly girl! Maybe she'll be a cave explorer when she grows up.
She's also happy and giggly almost all the time. She sits up, and tries to stand, and she loves to play with anything and everything. She loves her toys, but she also loves anything else just as much... such as a crinkled up piece of paper, a sock, a cell phone, or anything dangerous or expensive.
Finally, she's starting to get close to talking. In fact, she's saying "mama", and even though she might just be exploring how to make sounds, or mimicking the words we say, I like to think she does know what she's saying, and I'm counting this as her first word especially since she says mama a lot now (particularly when she's hungry). She also says "gaga" "baba" "lala" and a few other silly baby babble sounds.
