Last weekend, Stepan surprised both me and Magda by turning her carseat around so she is now facing the front. I had mentioned to him earlier that we may want to check her weight (we wanted to wait until she was closer to 30lbs) and consider turning her around because her legs were running out of room. She seems to enjoy facing the front. She really enjoys it when I turn around and talk to her at red lights. I'm looking forward to our next long trip out-of-town or late night visit with friends...I'm hoping she is a happier traveler with her new view.
Other milestones of note:
Zuberts - She enjoys giving us zuberts. Whenever she catches a glimps of our bellies, she quickly crawls over, puts her lips on our skin, and blows. The best part is she occassionally get a great zubert noise for her efforts.
Reading and Signing - She continues to enjoy books and being read to, but she really enjoys reading her baby sign books. She does all the signs in both books and also uses the signs appropriately when reading other books and throughout the day. My favorite signs as done by my darling girl are "fish" and "baby".
Almost Standing - She is enjoying pulling up more and more though she still needs my help to fully make it up to her feet. One of the cutest things she's doing right now is going into a yoga pose called downward dog when she's crawling along and I ask her if she wants to stand up.
Interaction with Peers - She is starting to enjoy more and more the opportunities to interact with other children. Today, while my running partner and I were doing our warmup walk, her 2.5yo and Magda were laughing at each other and holding hands between the strollers - you really can't get much more adorable than that!
