Mini Milestone

On the weeks when Christie travels, I don't often have much time to think about blogging. Today is no exception. However, I do feel the urge to share about a recent mini-milestone. For the last few weeks Willa has been more aggressively been putting things in her mouth and sucking or chewing on them. This includes her pacifier. However, up until a few days ago, her movements lacked precision. Although she's not perfect now, I have observed her reorient her pacifier so she is sucking on the nipple - instead of the handle or the edge... This is exciting for someone who has watched her struggle to figure out how to fit various items into her mouth in the most illogical ways. Progress comes in increments.
