Leaps and bounds
The little one has made great progress this week. She's now very stable sitting up, instead of having the tendency to topple if she tries to reach for something. She's also made a breakthrough in the self-feeding, having figured out how to pinch-grab and put things into her mouth. So far, this works well for her organic brown-rice rice krispies and small pieces of whole spelt bread. It works less well for the pureed veggies, although that certainly doesn't stop her from trying.
We've gotten her this thing called a baby safe feeder. Its a pretty clever contraption that allows you to put some larger pieces of solid food in a mesh bag for them. She's been gumming away on baby carrots and teething biscuits in hers.
She's been having a fair number of playdates recently. This latest picture was taken with her friend Esther. Esther's mom and Sarah have been trading a morning of babysitting each week so that each of them can get some writing done.
