Look, I have hands!

Angelina is 4 months 1 week old now. She's truly amazing. she has been looking at her hands for quite some time now, but it seems like lately she has been finally able to gain control on her hands. She now can grab things, loves touching my face when I feed her and, pulling my hair seems to be her favorite thing to do :0)

When Angelina was born, we were worried about our kitties, we didn't know how they'd react to this little baby. We thought that Nina would be extremely jealous, to our surprise, other than being a little startled from not knowing what Angelina was, they didn't really react much to her presence (I remember Sabrina staring at the baby while she was sleeping, all of a sudden Angelina stretched and poor Sabrina fled like her life was in danger! It was really funny), anyhow the cats love her. Now that Angelina is into reaching out and touching things, she is starting to touch the cats, feel their fur and even pull on Nena a little bit the other day. Nena just lay there and didn't even react. Of course, we're still extremely careful and keep an eye on the cats, you can never be too cautious.

One thing that she likes to do a lot is that I let her hold on to my fingers and I hold her hands while doing this... I tell her "up baby, up" and she will attempt to sit up, so I assist her by pulling her up as she does this. She really likes it. I don't know when she'll be rolling over but she's getting there and I am now keeping an extra eye on her so she won't roll off the bed, couch, etc.

It amazes me to see how strong she is getting and how much she changes from one week to another. It really is very, very cool!!
