Crawl and Walk

Jenna never ceases to amaze me. She is becoming more mobile all the time. I am sharing a video of what I think looks like an inch worm. I guess you could call it really, really slow crawling....either way, she is getting the idea very quickly!

We have a set of links, with my watch on the end of it to entice her to move. We have to be careful though, because she stops to be a ham with the camera.

Inch Worm

Jenna has been wanting to crawl for a long time. She gets up on her hands and knees and rocks, but has never really gotten anywhere. Last night, Lance and I were playing with her and she was doing the inch worm. She got up on all fours, lunged forward, layed down. She took several "steps" with her knees, but seems like she is a little scared to take off. Lance and I had figured she would be crawling by the end of the month....and she very well may.

Flatware, Cousins, and Flowers

I got a new set of flatware. I used some money I had been given for Christmas and my Birthday. I got 12 place settings and 12 serving pieces Here is one place setting up close. It is a combination of a satin and crome finish.
Saturday, Carla had to work a half day, so I watched Ciara. I got a couple pictures of the girls playing together.
It is nice to see the girls play together. They are both getting to where they actually play. I think it was easier to watch both of them than it is to just watch Jenna.
Lance had to work on Saturday as well. When he came home we decided to make cookies. Turns out I was short on flour. I asked him to go to the store to get me more flour while I made dinner and finished the cookies. When he came home from the store he had flour and flowers.
Isn't my hubby sweet?

Puffs and the Sippy Cup

Today Jenna ate her first puff. After she figured out I put it on her tray, she wanted to play with it. She would switch it back and forth between her hands, but she couldn't get it off her hand and into her mouth. So mommy stuck it in her mouth. Her first reaction was to gum it.
Then it disovled away and she ate it!
Mmmmm, yummy, Mommy can I have another?

Jenna has also been drinking out of a sippy cup for about a month. She does really well with it, she just doesn't always get it tipped up far enough to get the liquid out.
She has had Apple juice, Grape juice, and water. Grape juice is her favorite by far!

Papaw's Tractor Pull Debut!

On Saturday, Lance took Jenna and I to the Gasthof for lunch. It is an amish restaurant and the food was superb. Afterwards, we went to the Antiquie Tractor Show in Elnora. The feature tractor of the show was Massey, so of course my Dad took 3 of his tractors. The show had a "just for fun" tractor pull that my dad entered with his Massey Ferguson 444. This is a pictue of his tractor pull debut!
"Ohhh no papaw, it's too scarey I can't watch. Please don't break the pretty tractor!"
Since it was just for fun, they didn't measure how far the tractors actually pulled. Regardless, fun was had!
