Things are starting to stabilize over here. We're figuring out some patterns. Like when she gives a little barking cry, we know she's tired. Then we start the rocking and quick squats to keep her from getting into full crying mode. Then she eventually drifts off, and five minutes later she wakes up and we do the rocking and dancing again. This one usually takes and she can go into her basket after awhile. This girl does not go down without a fight, afraid she's going to miss something exciting. We think perhaps she's going to have a, shall we say, strong personality.
She's also really happy about standing up. She's gotten so strong that she's basically standing on her legs herself and trying to balance too. In no time at all this Maggie will be running around and we'll be running after her. Oh boy! Maybe she'll just skip sitting up and crawling and go straight to walking. We've got an Olympic athlete on our hands!
