Lydia is so interactive now! She is cooing and making all kinds of sounds with her mouth. Her favorite thing to do is to get up on my shins while I'm on my back on the floor and I bounce her gently while smiling and talking with each other. She grins from ear to ear and laughs. It brings such joy to me to see her so alert and happy. She is able to track objects with her eyes in all directions and can definitely hear well. Tummy time is not her favorite but she will do it with fun toys or a mirror in front of her. She loves the fish tank so she sometimes lays on our chest and watches the fish that way. Lydia really prefers to sit up with our help and she likes to now face out when we hold her. She is getting so big! We are wondering if she will last much longer in her car seat. She's only 3 months! All of the developmental stuff that we sometimes take for granted just seems like such a huge accomplishment for her. We are thrilled for her physical accomplishments, but more than that, we are estatic about her social interactions and sweet spirit. Thank you, Lord!
