Sitting pretty

Although I have been talking about Hannah sitting up for a couple of weeks now, all of the photos I have shared have shown her sitting against something, so I am finally getting around to posting some of her sitting on her own, and even a video of her moving. It's amazing how much strength she has gained in the past 2 weeks since she started sitting and she loves reaching for things (I keep reminding Kyle not to leave things too close to her!) Every now and then she'll forget that she is sitting and will plop backwards, but she is also getting good about catching herself sometimes when that happens and somehow manages to stay upright. Kyle wasn't sitting this well until past his 6-month birthday, so it looks like we may have an early crawler and walker on our hands, not surprising as she has a lot of keep up with her brother (and staying out of his way) to do. Kyle is still very concerned and protective of his baby sister, and if I sit her down on the floor somewhere, he will sometimes run over with the Boppy pillow, telling me that Hannah needs it so she doesn't fall over!

Here are Hannah and Kyle on the 15th,
just moments before Hannah reached over
to try to take a handful of Kyle's snack.

This is from last Tuesday (16th),
playing with one of Kyle's many hats.

Here's Hannah today, enjoying some quiet time
away from her rambunctious brother.
Here's Hannah today, doing some "talking" (and
complaining, she isn't happy when I take things
away from her)
