Gran & YoYo Visit - Weeks 21 & 22

Here is what we've been up to in the past few weeks!

..Juuuuuuust hanging out in her crib.

Julia's "Gran" & "Grandpa Yo Yo" came for a visit this past week! As always, the time flew by. We spent most of the time protecting Julia's sleep schedule (attempts) that we have been so diligently working with, but we also managed to get out to the island one afternoon for lunch, made some trips out to a few stores for some errands, and Andy & I even got to get away for a dinner out one night, too!

Playtime!

"Did you know books taste good?"

Julia has started sitting up unassisted! Though, still not well enough to get up there on her own, nor earn my trust to leave her like that for any length of time and any walk away. She's a little wobbly, but can still hold it for probably close to a minute (with a good balance) before making a nose dive for the floor.

She was wearing this special outfit (coming all the way from Yankee Stadium from Gran & Yo Yo) in honor of her special "Yankee Loving" visitors

Julia on her 22 week "birthday" - you can't see the sign real well in the back, but she was sharing this "birthday" with her Aunt Jane ... so there's a special birthday message there.

Admiring her pretty dress

This is her "I'm done with it" pose - when she wiggles herself so much and slouches down so low in the chair that her whole body sinks down to the seat part and she squirms away...... a tantrum in the making?

This video is a couple of weeks old, but it's Julia waking up one morning. She was just chatting away with her lambs on her crib bumper, and happy and can be before I entered the room.

This is Julia trying out her high chair for the first time. After I got her strapped in, I needed to go get something, and rather than take her out, I decide to wheel her around with me - the look on her face (that of confusion and awe) was priceless as she tried out this new "ride." She wasn't really having the high chair so much, but maybe once FOOD is involved, she'll warm up to it more!
