Random Updates

Everyone keeps complaining about how little I update my blog... So, here are some updates on what Millie G is up to these days.

She is really starting to take notice of everything around her. She has recently become very interested in what our animals are doing and smiles and gets excited when one of them walks by her. So far, the only one that she's gotten to pet is Porkey (but he lets anything pet him). The dogs are a little shy of her, but they so stop to sniff her now and then.



She is started to really love tummy time. In fact, she rolls over at night and seems to prefer sleeping on her stomach now! It kind of freaks me out, but they say not worry about it once they can flip themselves. She still can't figure out how to flip from her tummy to her back, but she's working on it.




She is starting to be able to sit unsupported during our playtime. She does better when she is distracted by a toy or something and doesn't realize she is sitting by herself sometimes.




She has sprouted a tooth on the bottom! She still seems to be teething though and is still fussy with the bottle and still drools like crazy!



She is practicing with different noises she can make. Last week, she was making this really funny growling noise that sounded like a zombie. She would lay in her crib and just growl louder and louder. When I went in to check on her, she would just smile at me like she was saying "What? I'm fine!". This week, the growl has turned into a whine/coo type thing. Sort of like Gizmo from the Gremlins. Again, she lays in her crib and just makes the noises louder and louder, giggling all the while.

She still loves to be pulled up onto her feet, but she's also working on crawling. When she's on her tummy, she puts her head down and sort of "swims" her legs up under her. She doesn't keep them there, but she's starting to get the idea. Now she just needs to realize that she can have her legs and arms up at the same time and she's off!!

I will try to be better at updating this blog now that she is doing more and more, but I hope that fills ya'll in so far!!
