Another month into the history books. Abby's doing well. She's still scooting around but not crawling yet. She's spending more time up on her hands and knees and she always gets down on her stomach from a seated position. She really wants to crawl, she just hasn't quite figured it out yet. Some times this is very frustrating for her when she can't get what she wants. She's always getting into things, pulling on cords, finding tiny pieces of paper to put in her mouth, etc so I think we'll be in trouble when she really starts moving around. She can always find the one thing in a room that you don't want her to get into. This is especially difficult with Lily around. Lily always seems to have stickers or rips paper and leaves it on the ground and Abby is always there to pick it up and try and eat it.
Speaking of eating, Abby still doesn't have any teeth yet either. That doesn't mean she doesn't like to eat though. She loves to feed herself. She's not so fond of eating baby food but she loves to eat on her own. I think she has a problem with the texture because she always makes very strange faces when she's eating pureed foods. She does tolerate some things, like applesauce though. She mainly just wants to eat whatever everyone else has though. She doesn't like being the little baby that has to eat something different. She really likes cereal, like Cheerios and Kix. And when she's full she likes to smash everything she doesn't want to eat (especially peas and beans).
She likes to mimic other people. If I blow, she tries to blow back. If Lily makes a high-pitched screech, she makes one back. She'll keep this up for a while. And she's very proud when you tell her what a good job she did.
It's funny how different babies are and how things happen at different times. Abby was able to sit on her own earlier than Lily but Lily was crawling all over the place by Abby's age. Babies are different.
