Scooter
Now she scoots forward on her bottom as well, when sitting. She really moves, too. She sets her sights on something, and goes after it. She seems to have made some kind of cognitive jump, too. She and Jeff had a conversation the other day. It consisted of Jeff saying, "Num, num!" and then Linna responding, "Nyum, nyum!" The interesting thing is that she usually responds with the same number of "nums" you say to her.
She's back to sleeping a little better at night - we had several nights of just the usual 4 am waking, nothing more. But the daytime naps have been very hard. Those teeth! They just HAVE to be almost here.
I found the box I put all of Ethan's baby toys in, and Linna's very happy. She likes the beads on a wire thingy, and the cloth book I brought up. I'll bring up more soon.
Last week she had her 9-month appointment. They said she's 75th percentile for weight, 95th for height... 20 lbs and 29 inches long. But I didn't quite buy it, as I think they accidentally gave her a half an inch on the height. Anyway, close enough. She's biggish but not a giant. Speaking of giants... we had an extra baby one day. I had sent out a general call for anyone needing just a little childcare, and one of the families in the Mt. Tabor parents group responded. So Mya's going to work for them one evening, and then the baby (who is a giant at 3 months younger than Linna) will come here one afternoon a week. Yesterday she came in the morning, and the two babies really seem to like each other. It's pretty cute. I hope she and Linna will be friends.
