Annika is growing more and more each day! She's really strong too! Tuesday evening, I set her in the corner of the couch between the arm and the back cushion. She tried to sit up by pushing her little elbows into the arm and cushion and pulling with her stomach muscles! She sat all the way up and then because she's not strong enough yet to hold herself there, she started toppling over the front. I would set her back on the couch and shet kept doing it over and over! I was on the phone with Kris the first time she did it. He was at work. Annika also likes to stand up. I put her on my lap or the floor, grab her fingers or chest and help her stand up and then she'll stand there for quite a while before sinking to the floor, resting, and then standing up again. She loves it!

It sounds like things are going okay at home for Kris and Annika. I think it's taking Annika a little bit of time to adjust to having Daddy home with her during the days instead of Mommy. I just know that pretty soon she'll prefer her Daddy to her Mommy when she gets used to having him around all the time.
