Is This Even Possible?????

She's not even 3 1/2 months old yet and this is what she can do!! This morning the kids got out our box of baby toys (I know, it's bad, my kid is 3 months old and has never seen a toy) and we put Lila in the bobby pillow to play. I let go just to see what would happen, and she can sit. She can't balance very well at all, but her little muscles are so strong. I couldn't seem to get a good picture, but it was so amazing.

Disclaimer: Don't look at my house, it's a mess. We only clean at the end of the day, or else I'd spend my whole day following my kids around picking up after them.


She is such a strong little girl. I think it's b/c she is so small, so it's not hard to hold her body up, and I think it's b/c she loves spending time on the floor on her tummy. She is growing up way to fast. She's also starting to "army" crawl. She can only get a couple of inches, but she grabs on to her blanket or the carpet and then pushes with her feet. This is crazy. I want her to be my little newborn forever. I'm going to have to start holding her all the time so she doesn't get anymore practice.
My mom says that I did all this stuff super early too, but I don't think I really believed it was possible. My other kids sat at about 6 months and crawled at 7 and 8, so this is totally new to me.

And, while I'm bragging about how wonderful my Lila is, I figure I might as well tell you this too. She slept from 8 p.m. to 6 a.m. (in her crib) woke up to eat, and then went to sleep again until 10:30. She's awesome, I know.

I just found your blog - love it! Benji is getting a bike for his birthday so we may have to send him to the big kid cul-de-sac to get some training.

She is such a doll! I can't believe she is sitting up like that! But, Bridger was my mover--he was rolling over at 2.5 and crawling all over at 5--please, don't let that happen to Lila! It's way too much work...:)
