Time flies!

Dear Lulu,
I didn't even realize that I hadn't written in 2 days! I just haven't been on the ball since Dad came home. Seems like everything piles up and then we have to take care of it all at once.

Today at baby group I noticed something peculiar. You made a very admirable attempt at crawling!?!?! I REALLY hope that this isn't something you surprise me with in the next couple weeks. Particularly not if it happens after Dad leaves again. I get the feeling you were watching little Ryder zoom around on Sunday night and took a few mental notes. This is one milestone I'm not looking forward to.

Yesterday, we caved in to another milestone. One I've been vocally avoiding. We fed you solids. Like full out sat you down and spoon fed you (as opposed to me just letting you monkey around with goopy foods. Something about a baby with goopy food everywhere just tickles my funny bone). You had sweet potato again. You HATED it when I let you play with it. But this time it was mushed up REAL good and you gobbled it up. So we let you have a little more today. Guess we'll just progress from here. It had to happen.

Tina just might be delighted to know that I took her advice and let you munch on a bone. That's right...I gave my daughter a bone to chew on. Like she's one of the dog pack.

This didn't seem so strange until I realized that we talk to you in puppy commands. "Lulu, give. Give the spoon, Lulu. Giiiiivvveeeee.......GOOD GIRL!"

"SIT!"
