Pillow time with Ada: New noises
The last week has brought us all kinds of new sounds. Ada had already mastered the yell, the giggle, and the babble. New additions to her repertoire now include a tiny shriek, squawks and even whines. See if you can spot them all!
Tummy time: maybe not so bad after all
She’s so proud of herself. =)
