Fun Morning At the Park!

Paprika and I met up with some other moms in the area at our local park this morning! We had a great time getting to know the other moms with babies. Paprika is crawling everywhere and so I dressed her in long pants so her knees wouldn't get scraped up as she raced around from playgroup to playgroup. She is a social butterfly- and very talkative, too!

Paprika is standing for a few seconds at a time on her own now. She could stand for longer, but she's still unsure of herself so she prefers to hold onto things. She is a quick cruiser and can move from one object of furniture to another very quickly by holding onto furniture while she walks around.

Paprika understands so much and can follow simple instrucitons like "open the door," "pet the dog," or "say goodnight," and "turn off the light." She is always laughing and smiling, and is such a joy to be near. Her two new favorite tricks are to hold my cell phone up to her ear and pretend to talk on it, and to put my purse around her shoulder and crawl across the carpet with it. Apparently, she wants to be just like mommy! I am definitely flattered!
