Charlotte's New Toy

Charlotte seemed to have been getting bored with the dragonfly on her papason chair and the butterfly hanging on her carseat - she stares at them, but they never do anything and she can't reach them. So, we went out and bought her a play mat to see how she would like it. The woman at the cash register thought she was a little young for it, but we thought she was ready to play. We got it home and laid her underneath and she just sort of stared for a while. She did seem to enjoy staring at the brighter colors and having some "new friends" to hang with. After just two days, she bats at them and grabs them and even puts her hand back to crinkle the monkeys ear by her head - she LOVES it. It's so fun to watch her grow - and these pics were too cute not to post.



And of course, I can't get enough of her smiles every day ...
