She has discovered her tongue for one. She loves to stick it out and move it all about :) It is quite amusing. Her vocabulary has moved from only "da da", to now doing "ba ba" and "ma ma." She still doesn't seem to be using the words in the right context, but she sure is saying them repeatedly. She usually talks the most when she doesn't think anyone is looking- perhaps she has already developed an imaginary friend. :) One of the funniest things to me is her spitting with her tongue out... she now does that in reaction to things instead of just for fun. Whenever I try to clean her face, she loves to stick her tongue out and vibrate those lips together as if telling me "no thanks mom, I don't like that."
The biggest feat this month, came last week, when she pulled up by herself for the first time!!! She still needs a good grip to do so, but is using her crib, drawers, and activity table to stand up like a big girl. She has mastered the holding herself up while standing as long as she is gripping something, but the minute she lets go, down she goes. It is precious to see how excited she gets when she pulls up, she knows she is a big girl!
We continue to enjoy feeding time! Camille is now eating Stage 3 baby food and lots more table food. She loves cheerios and fruit.... and most of all- bread! She gets pride out of feeding herself and is getting better and better each day at doing so. I even gave her some banana bread this week and man oh man did she love that!
So needless to say, this month can be entitled Miss Independent.... the more freedom she tastes, the more she works for it.....
