Singing Snowman

 

Mom and I saw this cute snowman at the store and had to get it. Zenobia absolutely loves it. It sings while it's head bobs back and forth and up and down. As you see in the pictures, she wrinkles her nose and takes a couple breaths in/out of her nose when she gets excited. She just started this a week ago and that's all she's been doing, especially when she gets a laugh out of us. Eugene taught her this when he changes her stinky diaper and now it's nonstop. It's so cute. The picture is a progression of her with the snowman from the start of the song to the end. You can see the snowman completely in the last 2 pics. As of yesterday I put the snowman away for a little while......it's cute, but Christmas is still another month away.

6 Months Old

It's hard to believe that we have had Zenobia for half a year already. Time is going so quickly!!! Too quick. She is already crawling and pulling herself up. Today I came into her room to get her after her nap and she had pulled herself up and was standing on the side of the crib just looking and waiting for me to come through the door. Time to lower the mattress!!! At the rate she's going, she may not need to "ride" down the aisle at Melanie's wedding-she may be able to walk!!

The time has come

Zenobia is officially crawling as of this week. She has had a little progession every day for the past 2 weeks. She finally figured out how to shift her weight on her hands, then she would move her hand 2-3 times then shuffled her knees behing her. Now she is coordinated with moving the opposite arm and leg at the same time. When she gets tired she still goes to her little hop, but I think it's fair to say, Zenobia is crawling. The pictures are of last week-she figured out how to move on the wood floor in no time.

Hello, anyone there????

There's no more sneaking in to peek on Zenobia as she's waking up anymore. She can hear us coming the minute we reach her door. As we walk in her head is cranked around as far as possible to see who is coming to get her. As soon as she sees us, she smiles from ear to ear and starts flapping her arms and legs. Just in the last week, she has been pulling down her crib bumper to look through the slats. That is how she looks for us now and is usually already turned in that direction.
