Sheesh! In baby world time seems to fly by faster than in pre-baby world. In just a week's time Harper is now sitting on her own (she could do this for a few seconds before but now she can for long periods of time...we still don't leave her unattended though as she sometimes gets distracted and falls on her face!). She is also on the verge of crawling. She has been able to scoot and wriggle around pretty well for a while, but now she gets up on her hands and knees and rocks back and forth. She can move her knees/legs in an alternate pattern but she has yet to figure out her arms. Soon! I am just praying I don't have to babyproof two houses, one for only a month or two! She reaches for everything now, expecting it to be handed to her (which it is a lot of the times). She even figured out that when she reached for our dinner plates and we moved them back she could just pull the placemat to get everything closer. Oh, and she has started the throw the toy on the floor so we can pick it up only to be thrown again game. My parent's neighbor's granddaughter was so sweet and kept picking up her toys for her that now she loves the game! She is definitely learning cause and effect and object permanence. She is still super social and will try hard to get people to pay attention to her. Most of the time they will smile at her and she goes about her business. If they don't though she works and works until they look at her or smile at her. In the airport she grunted at people who wouldn't pay attention to her. She is a well loved baby, obviously. ;-) More on our trip later!
