Orli has a new toy and she loves it. Our neighbors highly recommended the “Johnny Jump Up” doorway bouncer, so we got one for Orli this past weekend. We could only find the pink “Jenny Jump Up” version, so it’s a good thing we have a daughter. Regardless, she loves it. She isn’t quite bouncing as much as she is leaning and spinning around, but she really seems to like her new upright view of the world in this position. At first she wasn’t quite sure what to do, but now she is getting the hang of her mobility. She chirps and giggles while she moves around. I’ll have to take some video for a later post.

Becoming a pro
Orli has a little cold this week. She is congested and has been a little tired. Over the weekend she was very wiped out and just wasn’t herself. We were surprised when she crashed out asleep in the swing in the middle of the afternoon. Very un-Orli. It was cute though. We snapped a photo and then transported her to the crib for a proper nap.
Asleep in the swing
I am still able to pick up Orli from daycare around 3:30, so I have been enjoying my afternoons with her. On Fridays, Jeff often can come home early and we both get some bonus time with her.

Petting Peanut
I have slowly but surely been getting back into running. Unfortunately 2 miles feels like 10. Orli has been a good sport about hanging out in the jogging stroller while I get in a quick jog.
Hanging out with a sweaty me post-run
We keep putting Orli on her blanket on the floor to encourage some progression to her rolling, but she is still holding firm to the one side-one way method. In the meantime she plays with her toys and giggles at Jeff and I. Quite the confidence booster for our comedy routine.

More soon… still no tooth!
