Everyday this week, Madelyn has met new people and behaved more and more like a big girl.
One of my sweet co-workers, Jennie, came by my office to meet Maddie and play with her a bit. She nicknamed her "Tiny" since Jennie's son is 2+ years old so 3-month old Maddie seems so tiny to her. Maddie smiled at Jennie almost instantly, showing off her little dimples.
Today Maddie also learned that she can hit a toy hanging above her on her playmat and make it move. Up to this point, either Eric or I would push the toys for her but today she swung at a yellow duck over and over to make it move and entertain her. You can see her pushing her duck around with her left hand. I wonder if she'll be left-handed like Mommy.
Since Maddie is still getting used to my office and the new surroundings, she sometimes gets scared and doesn't know where she is. When she gets scared, she opens her eyes really wide. Hopefully soon, she'll get more comfortable at my office and can relax and have even more fun.
Here she is with her startled look. It always makes me laugh.
