And ...SHE'S UP!


Just the other day, Kevin and I were talking about how weird it was that Brooklyn wouldn't sit up. We thought it was strange because she has the strongest midsection we've ever seen on a baby. But every time we sat her up she would just fall backward making no effort to stop herself.

Today, I decided the reason Brooklyn wouldn't sit up was because she didn't have proper motivation. I was right! I held a pen in front of her after sitting her on her bum and she was so fascinated by it that she stayed up! And to think...only 5 months ago she was just a floppy sack of baby who couldn't even hold up her own head!

So cute! If I pen worked that good for sitting, I bet chocolate would do wonders for crawling :)

Hi Naomi:

It's great to hear from you! I am having a great time catching up with all you guys through your blogs! Brooklyn is adorable. Maybe I'll make it out to Chicago some time in the near future....

This is such an adorable picture of her. Why does she look older than when I saw her on Monday already? Maybe cause she's sitting. Woo hoo! Good job Brooklyn! :)

A pen is good...but a peanut butter M&M would have been better. She would have shot up like a ROCKET!
