So this week has been the week of changes. First Bean was able to move from her belly or back to the sitting position, and then this evening she started crawling!
Then there are the little things I've noticed this week. I've seen her get really good at picking up the Puffs or Yogurt Melts and actually get them in her mouth! I've seen her get better at picking up and drinking out of a sippy cup and she is working hard at mastering the ability to pull herself up to a table. Every night I picked her up from daycare this week she gave me a new face or looked at a toy differently (like she was learning something new). Tonight when she was taking a bath she looked at the bubbles in her hand and looked at me like "Mommy, what are these?" She has had bubbles in her bath since she was born, but it was like tonight was the first time she realized they were there.
While I am so overjoyed at how much she is growing and changing it is also sad because the time has gone so fast. I remember just wishing she would be able to fall asleep without being rocked and now she won't even let me rock her after her bottle. She is just like me, she wants to be left alone when she is ready to go to sleep. The first tweleve weeks seemed to go on forever and then the last five months have just flown by.
Everyone is right when they say you think the stage you are in is the best stage. Bean is a lot of fun right now, but I know it is going to get even better! I can and cannot wait!

Isn't it so amazing how fast they change? Max went through a stage where he was anti-snuggle too -- it will come back, maybe fleetingly, but it makes you cherish each snuggle even more!
