Quick Update

Pictures soon to come, but for now a quick update:

Gilly is now mobile. She started out with some inconsistent crawling about a week ago (maybe less?), but didn't get very far. I set her down on the rug this morning while I got her breakfast ready, and when I went back she was gone! She had crawled around the corner to the closet, and was admiring our shoes. She can also pull herself up to a standing position. She was practicing this last night, in her crib, well after midnight. The problem is she can pull herself up, but can't always ease herself back down. It makes for a noisy night.

She also has three teeth now, and has a large repertoire of babbling. She started saying "mamamamamama" on mother's day. Smart kid!

The Tooth

Gilly has two teeth, but only one is obvious in this picture (click on the image for a much larger version). The second tooth is right next to this one, but I think the drool and squash make it tough to see.

excuses, excuses

The posts may be sparse for a few weeks. I have my first annual research in progress (RIP) seminar coming up in two weeks. My qualifying exam (click, see part D) is also coming up soon. These minor distractions may keep me away from frequent blogging.

In more important news, Gilly now has TWO TEETH! Pictures to come as soon as we can capture a shot of those pearly whites.

Rugrats

Ben came over for a visit on Saturday!
