Two-fer

So we've been busy.

Dottie skillfully avoided a stomach invader that laid low the rest of her family. She took nyc by storm, making friends on the subway. ON THE SUBWAY! I tried to explain how you just don't make eye contact, but I was blatantly disregarded.

She's learned to back into a sitting position, and gets mightily peeved when the ball/block/platypus is underneath her to prevent said sitting. And (shhhhh) don't tell her but she knows how to *ahem* crawl. She doesn't know it yet, so don't say anything. She can make it to the tower o' blocks, the digeridoo, the remote, but not yet to a person. As in, "mommy, I am coming to get/find/attack you!" And if you ask her to come to you, she just whines. But she could do it, if she wanted to. I suppose mommy is not enough incentive. I must be covered in tiny plastic buttons or something to make it worth her while. hmph.

AND, she has her first tooth! it's very small, and coming in slowly, but it's in there. I especially know that because she bites us at every meal now. CHOMP. I am not looking forward to top teeth, because that is where the booby goes. Oh dear oh dear.

All of this in a span of about two weeks! It's like a time warp.
