the wiggle worm goes outside

Going to make more consistent updates. (at least try) Some major areas of baby development:

crawling: see previous post. You can tell she's so proud of herself when she looks up at you cheering her on. She got to wiggle in the yard this evening while Rick and I did some lawn work. The feeling of the grass doesn't bother her at all.

Teeth: 2 center bottom teeth have been present for about a month. Left top canine broke through while we were in Colorado. And, just this evening, we notice at the dinner table that she's making chomping noises at us. The left front tooth has just broken.

socialization: party animal! Was seen recently awake at 1am on a charter bus. We all had a great time at Jon & Suz's wedding.

Eating: mostly the soft stuff. Pureed fruit and veggies, one I'll mix some cereal with for a meal. But, she loves trying to gnaw on a big teething biscuit, and ate some small chunks of banana on Sunday.

I love my Grandpa!

Little wiggler

I'm going to call it. Amelia is officially crawling! A momentous event motivated me to finally post again. She's been rolling over for a while now, and getting better every day at pushing herself up with her arms. She has been crawling in little circles for a week or two but finally some forward momentum. Tonight she was moving from one side of the room to the other. I could never capture the big movements, and the video is a little dark because we were in the basement, but her face was lit up!
