She couldn't be cuter or more loved! Little girl has won all of our hearts for sure! She isn't sleeping through the night anymore but how can I be upset at that sweet face. We'll figure it out before long. She is rolling from her tummy to back by herself. She can roll back to tummy with help. She's working on her sitting. She loves her bath time and splashes and smiles and laughs the whole time. She loves all the attention she gets from her big sisters. She loves being talked to and read to and played with.
Just yesterday we were at the doctor for Adeline. While we waited for the doctor we put Althea on the exam table and she was thrilled with the crinkling paper that she laid on. She kicked and flapped non stop and was just delighted hearing the paper crinkle all around her. She made Addie and I laugh, she was so in to it.
She likes to make noises when she breathes. Just because she can. Especially when I'm feeding her. Also when I'm nursing her she will almost always grab my mouth. Kind of funny. So I kiss her fingers or nibble on them while she eats. After she eats she will usually smack her lips for a few minutes just to hear the cool sound it makes. She cracks me up!
When I go to change her clothes or diaper as soon as her pants come off her feet go into her mouth! She loves chewing on those toes!
She is wearing a helmet these days. She has (had) tortecolis and favored turning her head to the left when she would sleep. As a result her head started going flat on that side. (This is exactly what happened to Annaliese ten years ago!) We knew the sooner we intervened the less time it would take to round out her head. So she has physical therapy once a week to work on her neck muscles and she wears the darn helmet 23 hours a day. She does great though. If tolerates it very well and is an excellent sport about it. She's had it about three weeks and I think she'll only need to wear it three more. Just like that!
Love this girl! I still can't believe that she is ours. I am one lucky mom.
