It's amazing how kids do so much development and growing in little spurts. Heather is doing so much more in the way of talking, eating, getting around the last 2 weeks. She got her first tooth last week (bottom front). The other tooth next to it is about to pop through at any moment although it has been like that for days already. She is crawling up on all 4's now, and can even get up the step from the living room. She will climb up on me and pull herself to standing. She LOVES to stand next to anything, so is really trying to get up herself. She will also let go and stand up for a second or two by herself. Heather now says "ba ba babu", usually while looking at her picture or babushka and waving. I am sure it is bye bye babu because that is what I say everytime we leave the house. She give me a big grin when I repeat it back to her. She is really trying hard to say moon (she is fascinated with the big hanging stuffed moon in Hannah's room). She practices over and over. She loves to laugh at Hannah these days too and anything and everything pretty much cracks her up. Especially when they are being silly together at the dinner table. :)
Hannah is growing up!! Today she wore real underpants for the first time. Only for a couple hours so far but no accidents. She has been trying hard to go on the potty this week and has done all #2's in the potty every day this week!!! We are so excited! |
