I started Oaks on cereal and she is starting to catch on. She still makes funny faces when I first put the spoon in her mouth, but it is actually going down instead of ending up all over her. She now stares at both of us while we eat. She will watch the fork go from the plate to my mouth. She has become quit observant.
She also loves the beach. She will just watch the waves come in and out. I put her feet in and she loved it. She was kicking away and talking the water. And we cant forget about building sand castles with Dad. She was more interested in eating the sand, but she liked watching me and Andrew build them. Luckily Oaklie has Andrew's complexion because I got burnt and she didn't, even with sunscreen I got burnt. It's sad Oaklie has darker skin then I do and she's never in the sun.
Oaklie has a sense of humor now. She likes to play peek a boo and loves to do superman. We can get her laughing every time. She also has a thing for burying herself under blankets. I will go over and pull the blankets back and make a silly sound and she starts cracking up. She just loves to laugh. We got very lucky because she is a VERY happy baby. Her smiles make my day.
Oaklie seems to change everyday. She learns something new and amazes me and Andrew. She is my world and I love her more then anything. It makes being away from home that much harder because I don't get to share these experience's with my family. Face time helps but she is a totally different baby when we were home in March. But we did just buy our tickets home. Oaklie and I are coming home in the middle of July and we are staying for a month. Sadly, Andrew is staying behind because he is going TDY (training) for a month while we are gone. So of course we are going to use this time to go home. But as for now we are going to be enjoying our time together before we all leave. :)
