Ada adga

We're just cruising along in Minneapolis these days. Fall is making itself present, but we've had some wonderful days. Today was about 80 degrees and I took the girls to the Como Zoo in St. Paul.

Elaine is becoming an active and happy six month-old. She loves to sit and play with her toys. She can't really move from a sitting position down to reach things. When she is on her stomach, she does some pre-crawling motions. She rotates quite well and even did a tinge of backwards scooting yesterday. Another recent development with Elaine is on the verbal side. The diversity of sounds increases and now includes some consonant sounds. Her favorite sound today was something like "ada adga." It's some combination of 'D' or 'G' or 'T' sound. We look forward to the first words in the coming months.
