Thankfulness Friday - La La La

Because of Baby Bunny's diagnosis, we celebrate every little bit of her milestones.  Bun Bun has been cooing for several months now with mostly "Ahs", all vowels, no consonants.  Doctors and PT have told us that by 4 or 5 months most babies will start babbling with g, l, d, and m sounds (ga ga ga... la la la... da da da... ma ma ma, etc).  This week, at 8 months and a week, Bun Bun has started the la la la and a little bit of da da da.

She has been doing great in developing her gross and fine motor skills.  She's almost able to sit independently.  She does get fatigued quickly.  We've added Special Instructions this week to her Early Invention repertoire.  This builds up her play skills and thus fine motor skills.  Another nice lady comes to the house and plays with her (I like to have her job for a day or two).  Our homework for the week is to grab and hold on to toys.
