Juliana is very good at smiling. She recognizes her family and loves to reward their efforts with her best grins. It's amazing to see the recognition in her eyes as she watches each of us make total fools of ourselves getting her to smile. Juliana has also started to laugh! She is ticklish and produces some darling little gutteral laughs when we tickle her!
She also is very adept at holding her head up while sitting or on her tummy. She has very big, strong legs and is very good at pushing up on them while we help her to stand.
Like her sister before her, Juliana loves the Olympics! (The winter Olympics was on when Kari was an infant and she loved to watch all of the movement!) Juliana does too and gets cranky if we get in the way or turn it off! Ha!
Bathtime is her favorite part of her day. She realizes once her little jammies come off what's coming and just gets so excited--kicking her legs and smiling. She LOVES bathtime and is all smiles the whole time!
Juliana is a very talented eater. She LOVES to nurse, much like her brother! No joking, she nurses every hour and a half all.day.long. However, she sleeps through the night (lately 9-7!) so she's just packing in her calories during the day. (And that's just fine with Mommy!) Right now, Juliana is not earning any medals for napping. (She's a cat-napper, folks!) But, again, she gets the gold for night-time sleeping.
Juliana is a huge hit with our family. Another gold-medal kiddo for sure! We're so grateful she's such a healthy and happy baby and we're thrilled she's a part of our family!
