crawling!

discovered Simone crawling in her  crib just after I put her down for bedtime! she just got up on her knees and with her head down moved forward. there is definitely less friction in her crib than on the carpet, but this was a total surprise. during the day she will rarely ever try crawling. big day for Mama!

Day with the grandmas

Grandma Denise, Grandma Carole, and Simone got together today in downtown LA where Carole works as a county calligrapher. It was great!

Happy baby!

Simone loves bathtime. Only problem is that sometimes she gets too excited to go to sleep!

Rolled over today!

Simone rolled over from back to front all by herself today!  She was a bit startled, but momma was proud! 

More tummy time!

She's made a lot of progress in just a few days....

Grampa Dylla has arrived!

Baby Einstein

I finally got out the baby Einstein play gym and it seems to be enjoyable for Simone. She focused on the octopus above her for a while and the whale pillow is perfect for tummy time.

Out on the town with Grandma Denise

We are enjoying the beautiful weather at Kay n Dave's in Culver City.

Beach day!

First beautiful day at Manhattan beach! Simone isn't too impressed.
