Eva's had a busy few weeks

First crawling, then pulling up to a stand. Now she has added clapping and cutting her first tooth to her list of new tricks.

New Trick

Now that she has mastered crawling (she's crawling all over now, I'll put her down next to me in the office while I am working on the computer and the next thing I know she is across the house in the laundry room!), she's decided that it would be fun to start pulling to a stand. She mastered this skill just yesterday. She is still pretty wobbly but will even take a step or two while holding onto the couch or the coffee table. I'll try to remember to post a video tonight.

It's all over now!

Eva started crawling a few days ago. The first day she would just crawl about a foot before being done but now she will crawl all the way across the room if there is some incentive (her binky) on the other side.

Dancing Queen

Eva loves music and she loves to dance. When I picked her up from daycare the other day, they told me she was jumping on beat with the music (in the jumperoo). I'm glad she has some rhythm....she must have got that from daddy.

Yummy!

Eva's been on solids for about 3 weeks now and is just starting to actually open her mouth for the food. We used to have to trick her by making her laugh and then sneak the spoon into her open mouth. So far she has had sweet potatoes, avocado, and (just today) butternut squash. She just started sitting in her high chair to eat (before we used her bumbo chair because we thought she would be too little for the high chair). The squash has by far been the messiest so far.

Our little frog

Back from Arkansas

We spent last weekend in Arkansas and Eva (and Carrie) got to meet lots of new relatives and see some that we haven't seen in a while. Eva did great traveling and we had a great time.
