Lilah and I have returned safely to Washington. We were both thrilled to see Jonas again, although Lilah was a little shy at first. She still (three days later) gives him flirty sideways smiles, but I think she's just being silly and not shy. We had a really nice flight back - Lilah was able to have her own seat! That really made it a great trip. She is so squirmy in my arms now that trying to contain her to a small airplane seat that I am also occupying is ridiculous.
She is pulling up like crazy now, and is starting to cruise a good bit. She still sometimes likes to stand on her tip-toes, but manages to balance anyway. Anytime a toy plays music she bobs up and down in her own special dance, even if she is lying on the floor. She also got another tooth while we were away, bringing her total to seven. We have baby playgroup tomorrow, so she'll get to see all her friends she has missed over the last several weeks. So much changes with each child in that amount of time, it will be neat to see what they can do differently now.
Her favorite thing right now is when I act totally silly, making crazy faces and dancing around the room. She cracks up if I pretend I'm going to eat her arm or just click my teeth together and do funny things with my eyes. I'll post a video of her giggling. It doesn't happen often but it's so cute when she does!
This second video was taken at the beginning of July. We were in the car and Lilah was checking herself out in the mirror at her feet. Maybe she had just discovered the cute girl and the tricks she could do with her tongue?
