Talking, toys, and talents

Well, daddy's officially done with his paternity leave now. It was some great bonding time for the two of them, but he's decided being a stay-at-home dad is not in his future. He's looking forward to going back to work tomorrow! And that means Cali's off to daycare tomorrow--wish us all luck!- mommy may have an anxiety attack.
Smiling at mommy
If Cali balances on her chubby tummy, she can actually sit up unsupported for a short amount of time (not exactly shown here)
Learning to cook
New toy-the exersaucer, and the parrot stare down
Her new favorite pastime--watching the cars go by
Cali's inherited monkey toes
Enjoying kisses from the giraffe
The before mentioned refusal to sit reclined. Did I mention that before we realized she was doing this John came into my work one day and said, "Cali may have a head injury." I said, "WHAT?" John said, "yeah, i heard her crying and when i went to get her, she was face planted in the carpet... but she's been acting fine." Needless to say, we've been strapping her in since.
Thanks for the blanket great-grandma!
Cali's hands or toys are now constantly in her mouth
Picnic in San Fran
And here are a couple videos...the first is one of daddy's games (listen carefully to the end and you can hear Cali mimic him)...and the second is Cali babbling

Oh, how I love the Bumbo chair! Cali looks so cute in it & it looks like she likes it! As an added bonus, I think it will be difficult for her to get a head injury from it.
