The doctor told us on our last visit that when she was really steady sitting up, we could try giving her some finger food- specifically, the little Gerber puffs that melt in your mouth. So we did. The results were... mixed, to say the least! :)
She doesn't have the dexterity to actually pick them up, so I had to feed them to her. Mostly she gummed them a little, looked at me like, "Mom, what is this??" and then gagged on them. Soooo, guess we'll be waiting a little bit longer for those!
A few other things that I realized I forgot to add into the last weekly post I did... Elena has developed a charming fake cry that she uses when she's not getting what she wants. She sticks her tongue all the way out and coughs. Sometimes, if she works hard enough, it turns into a real cry. But, typically, a toy will distract her. I will try to get it on video, because it's pretty hilarious. The other thing, is I'm amazed at how curious and reachy (if that's a word) she has become. Just this morning at church I was sitting with her in the nursery, and she was playing with this toy that is a spinning ball. Last time we were in the nursery together, she just stared at it while I spun it to make it light up. This week she sat and spun it over and over again. Pretty amazing how fast she's changing!
