Talia - 13 Weeks

Talia is 13 weeks old! Or, as I realized yesterday, 1/4 of a year old! Boy, how this summer has flown by. The picture above shows you a few things about this week:

1. First, Talia has begun to show interest in her toys! She absolutely loves her exersaucer arch now, and will grab ahold of a toy if you place it in front of her face. She especially likes the star in the picture above because the little colored fabric pieces that hang off are so yummy (thanks for letting her borrow it Caden)!
2. Second, Mommy finally paid for not clipping Talia's nails often like every good Mommy would do. Notice the poor baby's scratch on her forehead? Yep, I felt horrible:)

Talia has also begun to master her bumbo, and sat playfully in it last night for about 15 minutes without teetering much at all.

Talia has also started to really use her legs. She has been kicking and bicycling for many weeks now, but recently, she has learned that she can pick up her whole behind, lifting her legs up to her chest! It won't be long before she realizes this will cause her to roll to her side if she puts a little effort into it. For now, it just makes for interesting action shots:)
