30 Weeks Old

Josh accidentally started deleting Pepper's 30 Week photos, so we don't have the lying down ones anymore. So the only ones that survived were these of her getting up and eating her sign.





She absolutely loves paper. If she is ever being super fussy and is bored of all her toys, we just give her a piece of paper to play with and shred. The mess is worth a few minutes of quiet.

30 weeks feels pretty big. She can crawl around a lot faster, confidently stay standing with only one hand on something, and has better motor skills.

She finally figured out how to play the electric piano-- she used to just try to grab the red lights but now she bangs her hands on the keys.

She might be teething because she cries quite a bit, but it sounds like she's saying "mmmmm! mmmmmm!" When she's really upset, she'll sound like she's rolling her "r"s a lot, a skill that I still haven't learned how to do.

She can not take a bottle anymore, not even at all, which worries me because it might make weaning her more difficult, and I can't leave her with anyone else for too long because she doesn't have a way to get milk. Hopefully when the time comes she'll figure out the sippy cup pretty easily.

She loves to bang her hands on everything. She will get excited and slap the table over and over while I'm feeding her, which makes things a little difficult and messy, but it's really cute.

We had a super busy weekend last weekend... so there are tons of pictures to come, hopefully today, if Pepper will let me! Hope everyone enjoyed conference. We didn't catch all of it so we will have to catch up on it later.

Also, Happy Birthday Poppy!
