Learning to Sit

Makayla is learning to sit on her own! She was tired in these photos, so we didn't really get any smiles. Normally she sits with the pillows around her and plays with the toys in front of her. She can lean forward, pick up a toy, and then sit back up. Sometimes she gets tired of sitting. In the second photo, she's taking a little break from sitting! Her back seems stronger every day! Sometimes she can lean forward and to the side and flop onto her belly to reach a toy. But then she gets mad because she can't get off of her belly!
One morning this week, Makayla had no interest in eating. She just kept squirming and looking at the toys on the floor and then throwing herself back. Finally, I set her down to play and she was happy!

She's also getting more mobile. She doesn't roll over very often, but she squirms a lot. Yesterday morning, I found her rotated 180 degrees in her crib! I assumed Chad had moved her, but turns out that somehow she rotated herself. Not sure how she did it...she must have used her feet to spin herself around on her back.
