16 weeks

The above picture is of Marley's hand at 7 weeks old and the two pictures below are of Marley's hand at 16 weeks old. See how much she has grown!

Marley now loves to sit in her "HIGH Chair" ( as MaKieley calls it ) while I am cooking or doing dishes. She sits there and plays with toys while carrying on a great conversation. She does these things so intently that she wears herself out as you can see in the above and below pictures.

She has become very good with her hands! She can hold toys and fingers and get them in her mouth on the first try! She is doing great with her sippy cup! The first few times we gave MaKieley her sippy cup at 3 months old she thought we were crazy! What is this thing you are putting in my mouth? were the looks we got from her. Marley on the other hand drank out of it the first time we gave it to her and is now trying to hold the cup on her own! She loves Grammie's shiny shirts too! Mom has these really pretty shirts that have little sparkly things on them and Marley loves to look at them and try to get them off the shirt (below picture). Last Saturday our friend Denise was holding Marley and she loved her shirt too! It was a kind of swirly pattern with lots of bold colors! She definitely has an eye for color and light!
