Week Nine
Sunday, September 28th, 2008In the last post, we mentioned that Madeline was very close to being able to laugh. Well, later that evening, we heard her first giggle. We were goofing around with her and we both started laughing and in joined Madeline. It was a very exciting moment.
During the week, Madeline also took her first trip to the grocery store. We had been avoiding this because we were not quite sure how to keep her entertained in one cart while pushing the other and grabbing groceries. But it all worked out. She is very curious about everything, so we kept her amused by showing her most of the stuff we bought. She stared at all the bright packaging. She responded most to the bag of lettuce. Andre’ put it at the bottom of her feet so she could kick it and somehow she grabbed hold of it and pulled it up her body. She then sat there and crinkled the bag over and over.
