Teeth and Other Changes.

We decided to pack up her swing and jumparoo and put them in the attic. She doesn't use either of them anymore as she prefers to crawl everywhere she can and get into everything she shouldn't. She watched us over the baby gate as we put all of her stuff in the attic. She really wanted to be on the other side of the gate. I have a new found appreciation for the people that put those baby items in the boxes at the factory. On her swing, I got all of it in but could not even get the seat in the box by itself. So the seat is in its own plastic bag. That one still baffles me. We have also packed up the changing table on the pack and play and turned the pack and play into a playpen. We now change her in her room on the changing table Rob made for us. Oh, and we are storing the bumbo seat and feeding her in the highchair now. So many new changes for our big girl.
Olivia herself is really changing as well. Her face looks different and she keeps making new sounds and faces. On top of all that, we have our first tooth poking through. It is a sharp little one. You can see and feel it. Brooke also noted that it looks as if the second front bottom one is trying to come through as well, but not as far as the first yet.
She has also given up on her pacifiers and juice at bed time. She doesn't seem to need a sucker at the moment, though I am sure that can change.
We have been practicing her standing. She has gotten up to 3 seconds as her best so far. We will keep working on that. Shooting for 5!! She loves it and laughs every time she collapses into me.
Lulu has taken over Zoe's pillow, as the dogs (at least for now) are not allowed on the new furniture, and growls anytime any other dog even gets close to the pillow.Chili is protesting by hiding in the corner under the end tables.

Can you believe O is getting teeth already? Seems like she was just born!!! On another note - that's my Lu, queen of everything and owner of all things big and puffy. Thanks putting the puppy pics in for me!
