Did You Hear That?

In preparation for the holidays and seeing BOTH sets of grandparents, Saylie has been hard at work mastering new tricks! She can't wait to see you all and show you in person (I hope I didn't just jinx her!)

Miss Saylie is again growing up too fast! She has been crawling all over the place. I mean full on crawling where her belly is off the ground. She will only drop down and scoot if she is trying to get under the chairs or something. She picks up speed if she's going after something she really wants. Otherwise, she'll just peruse around the house and find things she shouldn't have and then stick them in her mouth. So far I have pulled pennys, hair, paper, cords, a tack, and yes, DEAD BUGS, from her little grasp. I swear we clean up all the time so I don't know where she magically pulls these things from.

She is also able to pull herself to stand so some mornings I find her hanging on the rail waiting for me. My personal favorite trick is that she is done with cooing and on to babbling. Guess what the first consenant sound she did was? You guessed it MAMAMAMAMAMA. I LOVE IT! It is mostly when she cries but sometimes she'll just wander around saying mama and it is the best! She does it in the car too so we'll have casual conversations while we run errands.

These aren't her best performances but they are on video so we'll take them!

She is so cute. I can not believe that she is saying mama. When can she come and teach Emily?
