Yesterday, for the first time in her life, Nina was looking at something, then reached and grabbed it!
In this case, it was a sock-puppet doll that we laid down next to her in her little crib. She studied it's face for a long time, then slowly, and with a lot of flailing around, sent one of those little hands over to its face. After a few tries, she actually grabbed onto one of the puppet's eyes. Go Nina!
Below, we have a video that we think you'll find hilarious. It's Nina, sitting in her little automated swing (although it's not switched on). Once again, she's a girl of a 1,000 faces! You're going to want to crank up the volume on your computer for this one - her little noises (and one little noise toward the end, in particular) are hilarious.
And here's Mommy and Nina on an Amtrak train! They left NYC this morning headed for Vermont for the NICU reunion!
Sadly, Daddy had to stay behind to finish up some projects - last chance before the end of summer!
Stay tuned, blog readers!
Oh how great you got to go to the reunion!!!
ReplyDeleteHow is everyone doing? How was the trip, how long on the train? Wish I could have been there too to see everyone!!
Little cutie...she looks and sounds wonderful...so cute!
Let me know plans for the fall...as I am wanting to head East in October if there is a "no go" on Alaska.
Love you and miss you all,
Grandma Karen
I cherished my nina time, although it was too short. She is growing beautifully. Thank-you, and hope to see you again soon.~b
