My little Daniel is already 7 months old. He loves to roll over, sit up, clasp his fists together and put them in his mouth, laugh at us, squeal with delight when we play peek a boo with him, make random people at Costco (insert any store here) think they are the only people in the world to make him laugh. We took him to the pool at my parents' club last week and he sat there for a long time just splashing his tiny fists in the water, alternating each arm - splashing himself and sipping chlorinated water all the while. (Good mommy!) I love smelling his nice little head - really dreamy. Mike even said he liked doing it too. They should bottle it up. Course only we would buy it.
Sophie is a beautiful, curious, tomboy. She is adjusting well to her new role in our family - big sister, the "authority" on all things in the home including her little brother. I love watching her explain to our babysitter or whomever issues regarding Daniel - about how he likes to laugh, his pooping habits (he turns really RED), and his eczema. We got her "report card" or progress report from her school last week and it was pretty glowing. She needs to work on her assertiveness - gee that sounds familiar, right? I can be assertive if I'm mad otherwise I can be too accommodating. Role model!
