Spring is here!

Lizzy is growing big and strong. She is eating solids, learning to sit up, and exercising her vocal chords... Exploring the world with her is fun (museums, day trips to nearby cultural centers, picnics, and play dates). She loves water. She likes the sounds of gushing water. She enjoyed the swing in the playground. So far she likes being around new people and in new environments. She happily wakes up from naps in new cities, new beds (crib in hotel, sleeping tent in VT house, car seat), and around new people.

We've been training her to fall asleep on her own (took some terrifying nights of screaming), so now she settles down when we dim or shut the lights and that has made weeknights more bearable and something we don't have to dread anymore... Work is still OK. Doing new things and working with friendly teammates. So far, so good.
