Hmmm...

I've decided I am not so good at this blogging thing. I don't think I have anything worth writing. Even what I do have to say, doesn't end up taking long to say. Oh, well.

Elizabeth rolled over for the first time this last week. She was on her stomach, and rolled to her back, with much effort. She kept almost getting it, but would fall back to her stomach. This went on for such a while that I had time to get the video camera, so I have her first successful roll on video. That is pretty cool.
*
She is getting really good at the laughter thing. More and more things are becoming funny. Jake took her to the park the other day, and while they were there they met a woman and her two children. One wanted to see the baby, so the woman picked her up to show her, then the other wanted to see too. So she picked him up too. Apparently a woman holding two small children is reason to have a belly laugh (her first real hearty laugh). She likes peek-a-boo, flying, raspberries (she is getting pretty good at those herself).
*
She is also able to bear weight on her legs. She will stand against the couch for about 5 seconds before she buckles, but she is getting there on the standing thing too. When she is on her stomach, she is getting the motions for crawling, raising on her hands and knees. She just needs to get it all coordinated and she will go.
*
She has her 4 month check up on Friday, exciting because we will get to see how much bigger our little hippo has gotten. She is in 6 month clothing currently. We took her to work today, and weighed her on a big scale there, and she weighed in at 18 pounds, ahhh! Friday will let us know whether that scale is off or not. If it is true, she will soon move out of 6 month clothing, which seems to be the case by the way she wears them now. My goodness she's doubled in size since she was born.

Okay, I guess I had more to say than I thought. I should stop now. Tschuess. (Is that how you spell it?)

I think you are a fantastic blogger. It took me about a year of blogging until I found a rhythm of what I wanted my blog to be exactly ... "random musings ad tales of mischief" finally fit. p.s. we had to reschedule something for Saturday morning ... do you want to do the afternoon or Sunday?
