Oh, the Faces!

Oh, the faces this girl can make!  Russ and I love to just sit and stare at her.  Like...literally.  I could neglect laundry, bottles, and dishes....and just stare.  Except, Millie Janalee gets hungry, and we need clothes to wear.  We captured some the other day to share.  I need to catch her faces during naps.  The best!  Ha!

I love to watch her sleep!

Her daddy doesn't get much studying done these days.  Uh oh!

Even though we like to watch her sit and make faces, she actually likes to DO things too.  Millie Janalee is getting more and more alert, and it is so much fun!  We've started laying her on the ground during the day just to "kick around."  We call it her exercise.  She will kick and kick and kick and wave her little hands around.  She tries with all her might to roll to her side constantly.  I have a feeling it won't be long.  She will actually sit there for a long time...until she gets bored.  Then we turn over for a few minutes of tummy time before we just cuddle.

This past week, we decided Millie Janalee was getting bored, so we pulled out some of her toys.  We found one she seemed to enjoy.  The rattling sound and bright colors caught her attention.  Mainly, she just opened her mouth like she was going to eat it.  Ha!  She couldn't keep her eyes off it!

So much fun these days!  I love this itty bitty phase, and I'm in NO HURRY for it to end.  Especially as I saw everyone posting on Facebook about sending their kids to school.  I had a serious discussion with Millie Janalee about how we were going to stay little, and no going off to kindergarten.  But, I know that each phase will be even more fun!  We are trying to soak in every second of every day right now!
