End of September Update

I realized tonight as I was working on Mary Lindsey's scrapbook that those of you who look at these blog pages daily do not know some of the little details about Mary Lindsey and her development. So I thought I would humor you and share some "tid bits" of information with you. I know I am her mommy, so I think all of this is just amazing stuff...maybe you will to. If not, I have added some really cute pictures from today.

Mary Lindsey sits up very well at this point. In fact, she would much rather be sitting up than laying down. The minute you lay her down, if she is not sleepy, she is doing all she can to lift her head. Though she is not crawling yet, she has got rolling over mastered. She can roll from her back to stomach, or stomach to back. She can "worm" from one location to the other, which basically means she does not crawl, but she shifts her body weight to make it short distances. She has wonderful control of her hands. She can pick up objects like remote controls and telephones (her two favorites) and take them straight to her mouth! Everything goes to her mouth now. She is facinated with people's faces...she wants to grab noses and lips and eyes.

To the delight of Larry she does say "da da", but I will admit to you that EVERYTHING is
"da da", so sorry honey, but she is not referring to you! I am still determined that "Ma Ma" is going to be her first true word! We shall see!

She is a truly happy baby! She smiles more than any child I have ever been around.

So those are just some little bits of information for this proud mommy to look back on in year's to come and remember what these days were like. I know that before I know it she will be all grown up and she will read these pages and roll her eyes at me...and that is okay. I am sure I will do many more things to cause her to roll her eyes at me through out her life time!

I posted 3 pictures for your viewing pleasure tonight. The first two from this morning I thought were sweet of my little angel. The last one I took of her this afternoon while I was folding laundry on our bed. I had sat her down on the bed to play with some of her toys and she knocked each one of our bed pillows over and thought it was so funny when they would fall over. I took this picture of her laughing about what she had done. You have to admit...that is pretty amazing for a 6 month old!
