New things are happening!

In the past week and a half, Gianna has started crawling, learned to clap, and been giving kisses.  What an amazing time it's been in our house!  Bobby and I were saying how she seems to have matured just in the past few days.  She now has more control over her "walking"(with holding our hands) and standing, and she can pull herself up on multiple objects.  She seems to be soaking in everything we teach her and trying to mimic us.  For example, I swear she tries to say "puppy" everytime Nola comes in the room and I say "look at the puppy!"  She gets the "puh" out, but that's all she can do for now.

Usually I try to capture these moments with my regular camera, but these new things can't be shown in a single picture!  So, we whipped out the video camera so that our family and friends could see the real thing.

I used a cheese puff to motivate her to crawl towards the camera.  A free Gia-kiss to anyone who can tell me what I'm watching on TV in the background.

For the record, I taught her how to clap :o)

Bobby and I disagree about who taught her how to give kisses, but either way, we agree it's pretty cute!  The first part is her kissing me, and then her kissing Bobby.

She sometimes give spontaneous kisses, but when the video camera came out, we had to beg for them.  Makes me think of that song, "Steal My Kisses" by Ben Harper.  Anyone remember that one?
