What we've been up to...

Jasmine is finally able to start holding things in her little hands. She loves this ball and I think is convinced that she can fit the whole thing in her mouth if she just tries hard enough. It is nearly as big as her head.

She wants so badly to be able to sit up like a big girl. I prop her up on pillows and that used to be good enough, but not anymore. She has gotten strong enough to pull herself all the way up but as you can see, she doesn't stay that way for long.

Finally, Patrick is not so subtle about his hope that Jasmine will grow up to be tall and athletic - maybe even his little basketball player. She loves to watch Lakers games with him on tv, although she gets bored after one quarter - just like her mom. We saw this little outfit when we were out the other day and just couldn't help ourselves. Go Lakers!
