Mountain

I'm not sure if I've mentioned this before, but Adelais loves Mountain (the dog) and Bessie (the cat), but especially Mountain. Today she was sitting in her swing in the kitchen and Mountain came up to her, gave her a sniff and licked her foot and you would have thought it was the best thing that has ever happened. Adelais started laughing and laughing. This huge, open mouth smile as her eyes were completely focused on Mountain. And this is completely normal - happens all the time when Mountain is around. She loves going outside and watching him chase a ball, or when we lower her close enough to touch his fur. I think Mountain is her first best-friend.

Catch Up

Oh, it has been too long since I've written! I've been overly busy the last two weeks, so there is alot to get caught up on...
1. Adelais is still incredible!
2. She is now grabbing things and has just started bringing them to her mouth.
3. Today, actually, this evening she laughed for the first time. We were in the living room and I was playing with her as she lied on her back and she gave a short, small laugh. Now, it could have been just her playing with making noises, but Andrea and I looked at one another and we both thought it was a laugh. We'll see if she laughs again soon and then we'll be sure. But, regardless, it was pretty cool.
4. Today Adelais attended her first dance rehearsal. I had rehearsal with my company for a show next weekend and as I directed the rehearsal I held Adelais in a front carrier. After awhile she had to get out and Andrea had to feed her, but she did so good sleeping for the first hour or so of the rehearsal. Of course, everyone wanted to hold her so she had a good day socializing as well!
I think that is all for right now - I promise to not be away so long! : )
