Piper

So the new year is off to a running start. So is out little lady. Well, she's not actually running yet, but it's not because she doesn't want to. She is sitting pretty well by herself. Pop-pop gets nervous and sits behind her "just in case" she takes a topple. Poor thing. It would be quite the trauma should she "fall"! ! I on the other hand, keep a loose eye on her, making sure she's not too close to the hardwood floor lest she should take a short tumble and thump her little nugget. To me a short tumble equals tummy time and the need to try to get on her hands and knees to get to her toys. As it is now she just pivots on her butt. She will pivot around to Bob because she knows he's there and he will let her grab his fingers and allow her to "stand" for minutes on end. She likes that, the feeling of independence. I think he likes it too.

She also has her first tooth. She actually cut that one just before her 7 month mark. December 15th, to be exact. And she is gnawing like crazy try to push more thru. She had a bad bout with a "bug" at Christmas. Scared us all. Her temp spiked to 103. She is still snotty, but that could be from her teeth, too.

She is still the smiling, happy little girl. She's a joy to be with and quite easy to care for. We will just pray it stays that way! ! !

  1. Oh my gosh, she is soooo cute! Perfect for Liam! Man, have we got this thing covered or what?!?! Love that Bob is "protecting" her. That is priceless!
