Leah's first Mom's Day

Perhaps we have started a nice new tradition (we won't know until next year, of course).

Mother's day = a day at the beach!!  

We'll see.

Zzzzzzz

Leah's growing up and changing.  For example, her sleep. 

She used to nap in her crib at least two times a day.  Now we're lucky to get one long one from her.  This isn't great news so we have taken to bringing her out for a stroll every now and then with our real motive being not the roll of paper towels or new toothbrush we've purchased but to get little Lee to drift off to nap land.  

Here are the results of a successful outing!  

The latest

Leah in the morning with her Bee Book.  She loves it. 

Leah has a new trick!!  (there's another baby (Leah's friend, Judah)  in the background making some noises, too) 

Skills

Leah pulls herself up now and holds on to all sorts of items around the house.  Here she is holding herself up using the side of a toy chest.  Nice work, Leah!
