Pria is becoming more vocal. And not crying vocal. Chatty vocal. She likes imitating our lips and trying to copy our sounds. It's cute. I am trying to record as much as I can of her every day growing moments. Certain pages in her books call to her, hearing herself in an echoing place like my parents house as it is under construction, or just talking back to us when we talk a lot.
Sit ups:
She is trying to sit up now. All she wants to do is be sitting upright. Pria tries so hard to sit up and we help her by pulling her hands/arms up. We do little exercises like sit ups up and down so she can use her muscles.
Dribbles:
Oh my goodness she drools a lot! We need some bibs really bad. Within an hour of a new outfit the front of her top is soaked. And her hands are covered in drool because she sticks her fist in her mouth constantly. If it isn't her fist it is something else. She definitely has discovered her hands. We now have to be careful what she is laying or sitting by because she wants to put everything in her mouth. Sometimes it makes me wonder if she is teething early because she loves to gnaw on our hands, shoulders when we hold her, blankets anything!
Tummy time:
Pria doesn't like tummy time. In fact she doesn't lay on her stomach for longer than 5 minutes before she lets us know she is done. But we try it as much as possible because we know it is important for her to learn to roll over. Doing push-ups is a cinch for her.
So we also try different techniques to help her be on her stomach, like doing the airplane with her laying on our knees, holding her tummy down on our lap or soaring about the apartment like superman lol. She LOVES that one.
Playing with her toys while propped up on our bed...
