The Sock Battle

I wish I could capture in photos the way Leinna kicks her legs like she is swimming. It's just so darn cute. I did however capture the result of her "swimming." The sock battle! It's never both feet, but always her right foot that she seems to kick her sock off.

Other adventures for Leinna include playing in her Johnny Jumper. I've read many negatives about the contraption, but I was in one and survived and the way Leinna likes to be busy, she needs ways to express her energy. She hasn't quite figured out that you can jump in the seat, but she does like to twirl around and 'swing' in it.

Leinna was infatuated with her laundry basket this weekend, so I stuck her inside it! I'm sure this is just the first of many play times in the laundry.

Finally, just some cute pictures of our little girl. She's really doing well with sitting up and now gets on all fours and starts rocking back and forth- crawling is just around the corner. She's found that she likes to lick our wood floors and the foot rest of the recliner (blah...) which makes me want to scrub the floors every night.

Leinna is looking at Papa in this picture and if he wanted to be called Daddy, Leinna would be saying his name as "da-da". I think the only time it sounds like she says "ma-ma" is when she's crying. Today as I type this and watch her play in the exer-saucer- her sound is "OOOOOOO" very loudly :o) She must be missing her cousin "Big O".
