Bragging On My Girl!

I wanted to get this post up three weeks ago, but at this point, we're going with the better late than never theory...

Claire wants to show off her new skills!!























Just before Claire's 8 month birthday she started sitting unsupported for short periods of time.  We were so excited when she could make it to 5 Mississippi before she toppled over.  Now, just three short weeks later, she can sit tall for minutes at a time.  Her balance and posture are improving every day.  She can also get her hands up to play, or check out her surroundings before....


....she starts to lean....


....and eventually goes over!

  1. Haha! It looks like she is blowing a raspberry and saying "that is what I think about THAT!". Good for Claire! Before you know it, she will be walking and into everything!

  2. Yay Claire! Jesenia is still working on it. She's at the seconds mark. She has been flinging her legs around to the front while she's on her belly and then pushing up, but she can't get all the way up. ;-)
