I swear some days I get home and Max has grown inches and pounds since I left in the morning. Today she was in a spectacular mood and was loving showing off what a big girl she could be. She didn't want to be held or cuddled, she wanted to try and stand and sit up straight all by herself just to prove that she isn't a little newborn anymore! It was hysterical - her Charlie Brown head was wobbling around on her tiny little neck (some days I am really not sure that her tiny little neck will hold up her big bobble head and that makes me wonder what kind of baby neck exercises there are out there that could help grow her muscles big and strong because right now she kind of looks like a brontosaurus). But when she got herself up against that pillow and her head semi up she smiled and cooed like it was absolutely the best thing in the world. In fact she had so much fun that when she would timber over (which she has no control over and hasn't quite realized that if she puts her hands out it will stop her) she would smile even bigger and just look up like "Please Mommy, help me, I want to sit more"! It was almost like she was playing a game - you sit me up, I'll timber over - and we will see how many times we will do this before one of us gives up and I bet it's Mommy. I am sure that isn't the case though I think she has a few more months before she actually makes the connection between her timbering and me picking her up but who knows maybe we have a little genius on our hands???
