Playing Catch-Up

Whew! We have been plenty busy this past month and haven't made time to update the blog. So sorry! Soon I will post some pics of what I've been up to this month, but in the meantime, here are some videos highlighting what our little one has been up to! As you will see, she is sitting herself up, pulling herself to standing, and as of a few days ago, crawling "normally" (though I haven't gotten it on film yet). Enjoy the show!

Macy likes to "pick" things and give them to me. It started out with her picking the grass (or pretending to), but now she does with it just about anything "pluckable": the carpet, her hair, daddy's facial hair, and apparently the ribbon spikes on the top of this ball....

Macy's been doing really well with her animal noises. She will mimic a sheep "bah," but doesn't do it on her own yet. She has her "meow" and her "pig snort" down, but her current favorite is her "woof", which you will see in this video. It's very, uh, subtle... But whenever she sees a dog now, she purses her lips and blows and makes a sort of "wh" sound :) ... Oh yeah, and this video also shows her getting herself into the sitting position like a champ.

Macy doing...yoga?

Mace thinks it's hilarious when I chase her. This time, however, she didn't really think through her exit strategy.

Macy's pulling herself up to a standing position now, but I haven't been able to get it on film yet. In this one, she decides to just do a knee-stand.

I still couldn't catch her in the act of pulling herself up, but here she is standing and playing the piano.
