Social Butterfly

Dixie is really discovering her body these days. Today for example she engaged in the following-

with her mouth wide open for several minutes at a time she did repetitive tounge thrusting to feel her new little bottom teeth! she totally knows they are there and is trying to figure out what they are! so cute!

while sean bottle fed her she had one arm in the air and examined her little hand. She opened it, closed it, twisted it around to see all angles, and then repeated over and over again

While I fed her she used her free hand to grab at her little foot in an attempt to bring it up to her mouth.. im not sure she thought this through as it would have meant giving up the nipple to get the tooties in.

In addition to exploring her little body, shes become quite the social butterfly. Sean brings her into my work at lunch whenever I work (3 days/week for now), and he waits for me in the lobby. Whenever anyone passes them by she gets all excited shaking her hands and feet and giving out big smiles. Seriously everyone stops too oogle her! She'll even let basically anyone hold her and she no longer gets upset (which she did at 5 months- not fun!). Its so nice that she is being so agreeable these day!

Next up- a 5 day trip to the homeland to visit the sisters, brother and parental units, yippeee!

happy summer!
