As Antonia lost her umbilical cord stump last week (in poor Andy's hand... Nice...) she enjoyed her first "tummy time" today on her activity mat. She had briefly and unsuccessfully attempted the activity mat yesterday, but it was really a rookie parenting issue (over-tired baby + new stimulation = not such a good idea... Duly noted ;)). Today we planned much better and put her down right after a good nap, hardy feed and clean bum. Basic needs met... Check! She actually seemed to enjoy both the mat and the tummy time (although "enjoy" is a little tough to tease out at this point given the lack of ability to smile and such, but let's just say there was no lip quivering and no tears were shed- yay!). Here are some pics. As you can see, Zu enjoyed the mat too :).
Second time's the charm! Really looks like lots of fun. Wonderful, so many beautiful firsts.
ReplyDeleteOh,my! She is so truly beautiful, charming, and charmed :-)
ReplyDeleteGreat photos! She is too darn cute -- and I don't mean Zuzu! Love, Aunt Anne
