Sitting up








Juliette is sitting up on her own now. She particularly enjoys playing with her toys while sitting up. She still isn't a big fan of being on her stomach which leads me to think she will be a late crawler or just skip that altogether and walk first instead.

Juliette continues to be a good sleeper at night, only with the occasional mid-night wakings. I have been able to get her to go back to sleep in the middle of the night after a diaper change on her own in her crib. Very helpful.

Last weekend, we took a trip to Rader Farms, with Grandma, on the outskirts of Bloomington. We took a lot of really good Fall pictures of Juliette and managed to get a good family picture too. Juliette did not enjoy walking through the barn with the animals. I don't blame her, it was pretty stinky. I'm really looking forward to her going next year. I think she'll really enjoy it, lots to do for the little ones.







Yesterday, Bryan and I dropped Juliette off at Grandma and Grandpa's for the day while we went to see Michigan State play Illinois in football. The game tickets were one of my birthday presents. Bryan even bought himself a Michigan State t-shirt. I must say he looks good in green :) We really enjoyed the game. Bryan especially liked the guys who sat behind us. They were Illinois fans but they kept on making fun of their own team. This allowed Bryan to speak freely about his hatred for the Illini. Michigan State won! While we were at the game Juliette showed Grandma and Grandpa how loud and long she can cry and scream. Grandma gave her a new toy. Stack & Roll 'em cups. Juliette really enjoys these, as do Bryan and I. They are so much fun and you can do so many things with them.

Bryan is working on getting some of the videos of Juliette edited and shrunk for your viewing pleasure. This week Juliette turns 6 months and I think it's about time we get some videos of her posted for everyone.
