Long time, no blog

With Great, Great Aunt Ruthella
Who needs toys when you've got toes?
With Great Gram

We just got back from a long weekend "downeast" visiting Calia's Great Gram and Great Grampa Jack. She loved having new people to show off for. Some of her newest tricks are blowing kisses, blowing raspberries (especially fun with a mouth full of food), sucking on her toes, playing peek-a-boo (she's mastered this one, she will cover her face and wait for you to ask "where's Calia?" before pulling the blanket down to reveal herself), giggling at anything(especially herself, with mommy and daddy running a close second), scooting around the room on her back, and sitting alone for up to 30 seconds at a time. She is still not too interested in rolling from back to front, too busy moving around the room on her back! Tonight when I put her down to bed, she was still awake and grabbing at her mobile, guess it's time to lower the crib mattress. We also took Calia to meet her great, great aunt Ruthella. Calia made quite an impression, and she got to see a cat for the first time. She had this look on her face watching the cats walk around. I think she was thinking "kind of like Coda, but smaller, and faster, and fluffier". It was a wonderful weekend. I hadn't ventured "downeast" since 1994. Unfortunately, it was icy and rainy all weekend, so Kevin didn't take the 4-wheeler out. I'm sure we'll be up again soon, so Kevin can play!
