We spent some time outside today, reflecting on the year it has been since Mal passed. We decided we’re pretty lucky to have our new lives at our new place, but mostly to have Miss Liberty.

I just love how much bigger babies look when they wear pants, but not as much as I love how Liberty watches her big brother 🙂

Liberty has been loving her rattle for the past couple days. She doesn’t reach for it yet, but gets very excited when she has it placed in her hands and she shakes it around.

It’s never good when Canton is quiet. So when I went downstairs, this is what I found…

Good thing they are removable! He did say the hokie birds were are family (see 2 big and 2 baby birds top middle) and least his sweet thought made me smile (once I realized the stickers could come off). 😉

Tried Liberty in her Bumbo this morning since she’s definitely showing an interest in propped sitting. Unfortunately, she wasn’t a big fan…

So, I returned her to her favorite chair. We will try again soon…

Canton always makes sure Liberty has plenty surrounding toys/household items to entertain her. He even showed he what the Bumbo is all about!

Liberty being her happy, sweet self. She’s been smiling for a while, but I almost love the little smirks more 🙂

We heard a laugh today! Beautiful sound! Can’t wait to get one on video!
