Tonight I was feeding Little Chick her bottle before I put her to bed and she fell asleep in my arms. I watched her for a minute while she twitched like she was dreaming, and then she started giggling and smiling. Apparently whatever she was dreaming about was pretty funny.
She has also figured out how to scoot out of pretty much everything. If I put her in a swing, she hangs herself over the side. She tries to sit straight up if she's in a reclined seat, and she jumps like crazy in her bouncer. Her funniest is when she sits in the bumbo seat. Each night we put her on top of the table in her seat (yes I know it is totally against the manufacturer's recommendations), and she watches us eat dinner. She usually chatters away and chews on her hands entertaining herself. But one night I look to my right and she's MUCH closer to me than where I put her, and she's staring at me as if to say, "what mommy, nothing to see here." I pushed her seat back to the middle of the table and we watched her scoot herself back to me by tossing her little body backwards and forwards. She can totally get around in that seat. And when she gets close to me she keeps eye contact with me while she reaches for my drink or plate, as if I'm not going to notice as long as she's looking at me. Seeing her creep around is hilarious. I've tried to capture it with the video camera but of course as soon as I point a camera at her she freezes up.
In related news, we've started feeding her cereal for dinner. Mostly so she'll leave my plate alone.
