Echo Location





I knew Noelle loved the water but I didn't realize she really was part dolphin until today. She added a new sound to her repertoire today. She clicks. It's so funny how she suddenly has these new abilities. In the past week she has been very clingy and not sleeping as well as usual. Turns out she was undoubtedly having a growth spurt. Last night none of her pajamas fit. They are all too short. Her behavior has also changed in the past few days in that she will have nothing to do with lying or sitting. She is unhappy unless she is standing up all the time--a difficult task since she can't do it on her own. She has been able to pull up on her own a few times as long as she can get her feet into position first. She has also has learned 'nose' this week. She will grab mine when asked "Where's mommie's nose?"



Chris has been out of town since Thursday and last night Noelle had a little love affair with his picture. Our wedding portraitis hanging in our bedroom and while I was putting her to bed. She was looking at it intently. I took her near it and started talking about Daddy. She cooed and patted him in the picture several times. Then she alternated between staring at him and looking at the bedroom door for him to appear while she finished her bottle. True Love.
