Summary of January

It's hard to believe that January is over! It's been such a blur of getting back to work and dealing with winter colds. Adalie is changing in really fun ways now. She's getting more attentive and interactive. She now reaches for us when we're sitting on the floor - usually to chew on whatever part of us is within reach (feet, knees, hands, face). She loves sitting up and has started scooting. She doesn't go very far, but it's still amazing to watch. Every once in a while, she'll lean too far forward (which is impressive because she can pretty comfortably fold in half) - and she'll tip over. She doesn't seem to mind very much. She just rolls over and goes on with life.
Adalie also hasn't started crawling. She more or less annoyed by being on her tummy and much prefers to sit. When she is on her tummy, she just rolls to her back...every time. We don't mind so much as it means she's still basically immoble. There will be plenty of time for crawling/scooting and walking later.
Sandy and I are both feeling a little isolated - a product of being sick - and are very eager to interact with friends again. Sandy's parents were here in the beginning of January and mine are coming to visit this next week. We are very thankful that Addi is getting great time with her grandparents. We have also recently joined the world of the webcam. Addi has been interacting suprisingly well with both sets of grandparents. She smiles and reaches for them. Technology is a wonderful thing.

Can you believe it? She's 7-months old
