We Have Lift Off!

Today marked a big achievement in Kate Scot's development. She has been moving her head around sporatically since birth, but today (Saturday, 12/27/2008 - 2 weeks and 5 days old) she demonstrated her calm agility and smooth muscle coordination as she lay on her stomach and picked her head up to move it side to side. We were able to catch her in the act a couple of times and wanted to post this link to the videos for everyone to see. There are three clips, each a minute or two long.

Some things to note: She's really been cooing a lot lately and "talking" to us in sounds that seem like the beginning of a cry, but are more like grunts. Also, she really shows off her tongue to the audience in true KISS fashion. She's much more alert and playful, enjoying things like her bouncy chair, being walked around the room, or even just put in her car seat and swung like a pendulum. Movement is the key, even if it's just bumping around in the stroller.

PS> Christmas was awesome this year. Everyone was so great to come visit us. We'll be sure to post a bunch of pictures very soon. Until then, enjoy these videos... and if we don't see you 'til next year, Happy New Year!
