[Side note - this kind of reminds me of a story involving Erik. We had gotten our dog "Bud" before Erik was born. It was kind of a joke that we had had the dog longer than we had Erik. The day after Bud passed away Erik got up in the morning and said, "Well, now you've had me longer than you had Bud!" My mom didn't have the heart to tell him that his math wasn't quite right...]
But back to Princess Etta Grace!
Weight: 18 lbs. 14 oz. = 51%
Height: 28 in. = 69%
Head Circum. 44.5 cent. = 68%
Now where does she get that big head of hers?
We are having a ton of fun. She is exploring other types of crawls besides just army crawl. But when she is in a hurry her tummy hits the floor and away she squirms! Four teeth are in (pictures to follow tomorrow) and she has started waving. It seems like it is more to get attention than to communicate anything!
Favorite food? Beets
Least favorite food? Anything green. And chicken isn't going well either...
But she is trying new things and usually it is pretty fun to feed her. Drinking from a big girl cup is going pretty well too. Sometimes she gets a little extra and the surprise causes her to drop the cup. But we're just using water so it's not a big deal. Doctors orders yesterday was no bottle after one year, so we have three months to get it perfected.
This morning at choir she pulled herself up two of the short steps in Bob's classroom and went on her merry way. And although she still can't sit up by herself she can really move it move it!
And one of most favorite toys is the little player piano that Grandma Cathy has at her house. It is just Etta's size and she goes to town while playing. Even more than on a "real" piano. She is getting pretty good at pulling herself up to play that too.
Here are a few pics from our photo shoot today.
This is a fun toy. Maybe I'll lay here for a few minutes.
That's it. Photo shoot over. I'm outta here.
See, I just like to sit and enjoy the world. Aren't I cute?
