Teeth!

A couple of days ago I tried to text Jeff while holding Linden, and she took this selfie:

Linden turned 5 months old on August 1. She is really starting to show her personality. She is persevering, and appears to be frustrated by her lack of abilities. She wants to eat, but isn’t quite ready yet. She needs to either be able to sit unsupported or be 6 months old before eating is recommended, because these external markers correlate with intestinal development.  But she can’t quite sit on her own yet, which she finds extremely frustrating, because she seems to be completely done with laying flat but has no other options in terms of her own abilities. She also loves watching Maren, especially Maren jumping, and does this excited screech every time she sees Maddy, for the entire duration of time that she sees Maddy. She is pretty funny 😁

 Maren is continuing to learn to read and spell. With a little help, she used her magnetic letters to spell the names of some of her favourite superheroes, but she didn’t have enough of the letter A. So she improvised with The Flash. I think it is both impressive and hilarious :)
