Blogging Baby

I have finally found some time to try to get this blog thing going for Lis. She is sitting on my lap fairly content, but I can't promise it will last. Oops, she just knocked stuff off the desk. So here is beautiful Lis Ana:

She is so beautiful - isn't she? We think so. And we are very lucky that her daddy is such a talented photographer! These days she seems to be seriously teething and she tells us that it is very painful. We went to the doctor on Friday and found out that she weighs 15 lbs 14 oz and is 26.5 inches long! She is a very big girl for her age. She is wearing clothes intended for 6 - 9 month olds and even some for 9 - 12.

Today for the first time I noticed her switch a toy from one hand to the other. And her Auntie Nic pointed out that she can not only take a pacifier out of her mouth but replace it back in! She is getting very coordinated. She also seems to get frustrated when she can almost, but not quite, do something - like sit up! She wants to do it SO BAD, but isn't quite there. With the help of a boppy she can sit up though, and she LOVES to watch Seasame Street that way. She's still not loving being on her tummy, but is getting more used to it with practice.

Mommy went back to work on September 25th, but only part time - three days a week. Luckily, we have the best childcare ever (horray for Auntie Nic!) and Daddy has been able to take over for part of the time.

Okay, Lis is done with sitting at the computer, so clearly I'll have to come back to this later.
