dual personalities

Yesterday my sister wrote a very thoughtful post that quoted a variety of sources and had a clear message about the gift of life. Today, I have something along the lines of: “Sitting is fun!”

But seriously, sitting is really fun. We do a lot of it around here, and we do a lot of remarking about how big and grown up Katie looks while sitting. Toys can be played with in myriad new ways. It’s thrilling.

Rest assured, we still love tummy time, though we don’t stay on our tummies too long before we start rolling around like a nut ball. Katie has also become very interactive with books, though properly turning pages is often an accidental byproduct of trying to shove the whole thing in her mouth. (Literal) baby steps.

Just for some additional precious angel vibes, I will leave you with this:

Katie sporting a new hat and booties from her Aunt Mary, fresh from a care package. “Priority Mail” (see background) might be an oxymoron these days, but it is the case that we are now receiving all of the retail therapy orders we placed as the holidays concluded. (My order included the chambray pants Katie has on.) Is Katie the beneficiary, or are we?!
