Dada

Dear Michela,

You have accomplished a lot in January!  You're now saying 'dada' all the time.  Last week you started whispering it!  You are so cute when you talk.  Okay, lets face it - you're cute all the time.  You also started making kissing sounds.  You're not blowing kisses or kissing anything, just making the sound with your lips.  You are warming up your articulators to learn new words.  Maybe 'mama' is coming soon?


You sure love your food!  The only food you're not fond of is pumpkin and pureed carrots.  You'll eat steamed carrots as long as they're not pureed.  I thank you for making less work for me.  :)  A couple of nights ago I made sweet potato fries and you went to town!  You loved them!  It is so fun watching you eat like a big girl.  I hope to make more finger foods and less purees for you.  So far you have eaten: peas, green beans, sweet potatoes, carrots, zucchini, blueberries, apples, prunes, peaches, mango, banana, pumpkin, butternut squash, different combinations of the fruits and veggies above, mum mums, and puffs.



You're not crawling yet but you're getting close.  Now when you topple over from sitting you're more graceful about it and go down slowly.  You also lunge forward while sitting and go to your tummy.  Recently while sitting you start bouncing and end up moving forward.  It's not the most efficient way to move about but you have fun doing it!  Of course, you mainly get around by rolling or scooting backwards on your tummy.


I love you Michela Grace!

Love,

Mommy
