Lydia went to visit her Grammy and Poppy for Thanksgiving. (Grandpa was recently renamed "Poppy" by Lydia's cousin Liam. Lydia didn't express an opinion one way or the other, so we'll go with it!). She had a very good time and made everybody smile all weekend long. We went to a neat place that had acres and acres of fun Christmas lights! She was all snuggled up in her warm Winnie the Pooh fleecy sack and fell asleep during the tour.
Lydia's latest trick is to bounce or sway whenever she gets the chance. She doesn't even need music. Also, she has been trying to figure out how to move on her tummy. She's lifting her bootie way up in the air and pulling up on her arms. Not crawling yet at all, but she's curious. We've tried to encourage her and we place her on her tummy often, but really, as with each milestone, she decides to try something when she's ready. Yesterday Oliver caught her trying very hard to figure it out when she was waking up from a nap in her crib. She's just naturally feeling a desire to move more independently and is trying to figure out what she's capable of doing. So neat.
