4 things about Grace this month.

1. She started daycare in the last couple of weeks. She seems to be adjusting pretty well. She hasn't had any bad reports yet, at least! She's certainly being exposed to a lot of new things. The exersaucer, jumperoo, the swing on the playground, finger painting, lots of stories and songs (Baby Belugia), her teachers are "teaching" her Spanish, Bulgarian and Sign Language - the sign for Monkey, specifically. Teaching in quotes, b/c we'll see what she actually learns.... but she is being stimulated, that's for sure. She's coming home exhausted!

2. She likes sitting up. Still hates tummy time, and hasn't rolled yet...probably b/c she hates her tummy. But she is starting to like sitting up, and can sit in the tripod position for a minute or so.

3. She's napping in her crib or pack-n-play. We were working on this before day care, but never lasted more then 30 min or so. Tuesday she took a 2 hour nap in her crib at day care. I asked two different teachers if they were sure she really did that! And today, I laid her down in the pack-n-play awake, and she put herself to sleep....she's still sleeping in fact, and it has been about 30 minutes. Hopefully this is a new trend, but could also be related to getting shots today and having some tylenol.

4. Grace has become more social. She babbles, smiles, laughs... and looks at you for a response. It's kinda fun to interact with her. See video from a few days ago if you need proof!
