So I started this post last Friday because when I was shopping and trying some clothes on (finally things fit a little better!!) Alli started laughing and smiling when she was looking in the mirror. We have showed her the mirror to see if she recognized herself before, but it never clicked until then. She was so happy to see herself in the mirror or to see the baby, I don't know how much she understands yet. O/well either way it made me laugh and she was very happy! Also I set her on her back on the floor in the living room on Sat. and I went into our room for a minute and when I came out this is what I found (except in the picture she looks like she is on her side). She had rolled herself over and was on her tummy just jabbering and playing.
Another find, not as happy, but I was uploading some pictures and I found some of when Alli was in the hospital and I realized I never put them up so just so I have them on here these are when she had her iv the week after she was born. So she is three days old in the pics. Obviously she is not happy about what was going on, but for the most part she just kind of hung out when she was in the hospital. This is the night we were admitted and she had just gotten poked a bunch of times when they were trying to get the iv in. Through this ordeal though, I felt so blessed to have the greatest family and friends. Everyone was so supportive and understanding throughout this. Without all of the calls and visits wondering how we were doing and giving us encouragement, I really would have lost it. You can see in the picture I was having a really hard time. Anyway, thank you to everyone who was so helpful!! We love you all!
However, she is great now and just to prove it the next pic is of her ready for church yesterday. I thought she looked really cute so I had to put it up.
And just because her hand is her new favorite thing, another pic of her sucking on her hand.
