Recently, Miss Baby traveled with her entourage to Pennsylvania to perform at a family reunion. She danced; she dazzled. And we learned that she has a healthy appetite for buckwheat pancakes. Audrey did a great deal of walking with assistance, and she demonstrated her developing OT skills by not only pulling legos apart for hours, but putting a few of them together! She is no longer content staying in one room and scoots and crawls wherever she would like to be.
Audrey is imitating more of what she sees, and now brushes my hair when I brush her hair. In case you're thinking, "Awww," you may recall from previous posts that she really HATES that. I think she is brushing my hair more for revenge than affection. She is beginning to experiment more with cause and effect, looking for a consistent reaction from me when she performs certain acts, like pinching me. She sometimes takes offense (the lip!) when I redirect her to more acceptable behavior, but mothers have a special immunity to that really cute, manipulative behavior.
"Hello, PA!!! Are you ready to ROCK?!?!?" she says, as she launches a sippy cup. And the crowd goes WILD....
