15 Weeks?

Is it bad when we don't remember how old the kid is? We'll have to look that up...
Been a big last couple of weeks as far as milestones ---
1) Spending time in her little activity center. A lot of time spent leaning forward and drooling/chewing on the fabric seat. Looking like a day care in my living room!
2) Discovering the TV - she could stare at it forever if we let her. And don't get in between the TV and her - she'll try to look around you. Gotta quit watching bad stuff (like the news!). She really seems to like cartoons.

3) Bottles! She's been taking 3 to 4 a day and willingly for the most part --- woohoo!!! Makes going back to work a lot easier - hard to take mommy to daycare with you.

4) Scooting. This is a big one. The other night she was laying next to Greg on the floor, then noticed she was closer to the TV, and then she had wiggled herself onto her activity mat and was kicking at her toys to make them play music. My mom swears she just wiggles her hips around to move. Still not sitting alone but getting better and stronger.

5) Grabbing faces and fingers and toys and taking them to her mouth. Makes you feel all warm when she grabs at your face to play with it - not for long once we start swiping at glasses and pulling hair. Favorite though is her stuffed dolly - don't know who bought it but thanks! She loves it!

6) Bathtime. Tonight and last night, she starts crying and immediately gets quiet when you take of her clothes (true Baggett here) and especially loves bathtime by Daddy. She's learned how to bump her toosh over the hump in the bathtub to submerge herself in the water. Tonight, was a new first and very obvious she knows what she is doing. Won't be a long time before we need to buy a little blowup bathtub or something bigger.

7) Talking better all the time. Carries on conversations with you as long as you want to talk to her.

She is growing so fast! It just seems like yesterday that she was born. I love the bathtub video! She will have so much fun swimming with Branson and this baby this summer. Oh, you know we'll be in the water! Yea!
