We’re still busy packing away and getting things ready for the big move to the new house. It’s taking us longer than we expected, but everything is pointing to being able to move next weekend. I hope to be able to increase the frequency of the blog posts once we get moved in.
While we’ve been packing boxes full of stuff that we haven’t even looked at in years, which we’ll either leave in boxes or unpack to locations where it will get lost for several more years, Ashlyn has decided to work on a few new milestones.
She still has a ways to go before she’ll be able to sit up on her own, but she’s starting to a show an active interest in the idea. When we have her sitting on our legs, she tries to sit up straight. This typically ends with her falling forward on to her face, but you have to give her points for effort.
Just today, not hours prior to this post, Ashlyn rolled over on to her side for the first time after being on her back.
She’s learned a new trick from mommy. Heather would make Ashlyn smile by making that ptptptpt noise with her lips when blowing out air. Starting today, Ashlyn is starting to make the noise back. It’s cute to watch, she can’t get the lips moving that fast so she kind of spits to get the same effect. I didn’t have the camera with me this evening, but I’ll get it on camera soon and post it.
That’s all I have for tonight, adios!
