Cute

Why can't I think of anything to write about Linna except how cute she is? She is SO CUTE. She's gotten so big and pudgy. As she gets older, I actually think she looks less like Ethan, although they definitely look like siblings. But her face is narrower, and her eyes deeper-set. Maybe she looks like me, just a little? Her eyes are starting to turn color, but of course we can't tell how they'll end up. Right now they're gray-blue-green with a little brown.



Her hair is ridiculous. It still sticks up on top, but is starting to curl there where it's long. She's got a huge bald spot on the back of her head, because when she wakes up at night, she tends to just move her head back and forth instead of cry to get our attention. It does wake me up, in fact, and then I take her and feed her.

She's a great sleeper, actually. She takes three short naps, more or less, during the day, but then just zonks out around 8 or 8:30. She usually wakes up once during the night, then again in the early morning at 5 or 6 o'clock. Not bad at all. If there were just more room in our family bed, I'd be getting plenty of sleep.


She's also getting stronger, and will tolerate being on her tummy and pushing herself up for a short while. Sometimes we put her in our hand-me-down bouncy chair (thanks, Janice!), and she doesn't mind it... but when we unbuckle her to pick her up, she just looks so excited and happy, and starts kicking her little legs for all she's worth.

She finds Ethan the most interesting of all. He's gotten several more bouts of giggles from her. She also enjoys lying on the gymini mat and playing with the big spider over her head.
