Finley Loves to "Swim"

Finley is showing no signs of crawling anytime soon, but she does try to "swim". When we put something in front of her that she wants and would have to crawl to, she waves her arms and legs as if she is trying to swim. Once she realizes she needs to lift up her tummy, I am guessing we will see some movement. As for now, it is fun to watch her swim and then get frustrated when she makes no progress. To her credit, she keeps on trying! I hope this means she will be a great real swimmer in our pool. Her feet sure are big enough!

Finley is also getting very interactive with her toys. Though the interaction usually ends with her trying to eat what she is after.

Family Zoo Trip

G-ma, Cousin Faith, Aunt Rose, Aunt Laurina, Uncle Walter and Aunt Sidonye met us for an afternoon of fun at the zoo. We saw giraffes, elephants, cheetahs and lots more animals. It was quite an enjoyable afternoon at the zoo and Finley was just exhausted when we got home. She hadn't had her midday nap and by the end of our time at the zoo, she was an unhappy zoo-goer.
