Scareltt is Playing

There are pluses and minuses to working and not being home during the day. One of the pluses is that I get to see Scarlett's development in chunks. Since Amber is with her all day, Scarlett's progress can get blended together in a day-to-day swirl of diaper changes, laundry, walks, naps, and other whatnots of raising a baby. I on the other hand, get to come home and experience Scarlett doing something totally new. It's like when I was a kid and my relatives who did not see me very often would say, "you've gotten so tall."

This happened yesterday as I noticed Scarlett is now playing. She ripped her bib off and started just flailing it around, stuffing it in her mouth, throwing it away, and so on. She did this for a good 20 minutes. It was the coolest! She was not doing this just a week ago.

Here is a pic of her this morning, just playing.
