Our little Kate is making some big developments:
Kate loves being a big girl and anything that makes her feel that way. She loves to stand up when in your lap. She loves to play on her tummy and push herself up. If you walk away she tries to follow you by rolling. I've watched her complete 7 rolls and move half way out of the living room. She loves jumping! We got her a new jumping seat that is pretty much her favorite place to be. She is adorable in it as you can see from the video below.
She loves her cereal, makes mmmm noises when eating it, and holds the bowl with both hands. Kate actually started taking juice out of a sippy cup the other day. She really isn't one for the bottle and is always trying to grab my glasses so I bought her a kind of in between sippy cup. I pretended to drink out of it and of course she grabbed it right out of my hands and had to try it herself.
She has started sleeping much better at night sometimes as long as 11 hours without a feeding. Taking naps is a different story. I would almost say she has given up napping except for maybe two 20- 40 minute cat naps while we are running errands. I am working on this, though the night time sleeping is just fine for the moment.
Kate is great at playing with toys. My Mom got her a big bag of great toys that Kate has totally taken to. She has a piano she plays, an alligator she bites, and lots of things to stimulate her. She is starting to enjoy reading books, and our favorite is Kate's laugh. Her laugh continues to grow in frequency, length, and overall cuteness. She is a little ticklish, likes playing peek-a-boo, and loves being kind of startled. She went on the baby swing by my Mom's house and loved it. She liked it more the higher we went. She is quite the little daredevil.
As you can see we've had lots of fun and excitement in the last month with our precious Kate!
