-Going "rogue" in the bathtub...finally not sitting in a ring, but able to crawl around and she LOVES it! The bath is one of her favorite things for sure. We ask "do you want to splash?" and she makes her own noise for "splash" and swats her hands in the air like she's splashing water. She also stood to her feet to look into the bathtub this month which is rare! I guess she was willing to do the work for something she loves! She also stood up to her feet at her music table. Starting to get a little braver!
-She got to ride in a boat on the lake 2 different times this month and loved it. She just smiled and smiled as the breeze blowing in her face and sat so still. The giant life jacket around her didn't bother her a bit-she just totally relaxed in it and kind of fell over while riding. So funny!
-She also makes her own noise for "eat" and simultaneously signs "please" when she wants to eat a snack. She also puts her hand to her mouth for the eat sign. She loves to put her sippy in the cup holder part of her high chair tray. She never throws it down, but wants it in its proper place.
-She tickles her own belly when she can get to it and makes the "tickle, tickle, tickle" sound while she does it. She does a lot of pointing these days and will point to what she wants and emphatically lean to tell us what it is she would like. She also sometimes points while we are holding her as if she is saying which way she wants us to take her.
-She loves dogs and cats! She gets so excited and starts to babble with excitement in her own little language when we see one out and about. She doesn't get nearly that excited about our own Maggie, though! There was a frog in the skimmer the other day and she had such mixed feeling about it. She was scared to death and didn't want Steven to put her down, yet she kind of wanted to touch it, but then she would pull back and cry right after she leaned in to take a closer look. She was fully conflicted and I was laughing so hard watching her that I cried!
-She got another tooth this month (started last month, but it is officially in now) on the bottom right, and I think it caused her some pain. She had times of being upset for no reason, so I think this must have been why.
-She says "rue-bee!" for her name now and it is so cute! We got a video of it so we can remember it forever! Some other words she says are baby, diaper (bye-puh), weee!, uh-oh, splash (her own version of it), eat, ball (bah), shoe (oosh), bubba, repeats 3, cracker (crah-kah), papa, dadda, daddy (dah-deee!! She says this way more than mamma!).
There's lots more, but I better stop. We love you sweet Rubes.
