Do I Know You?
Today marks the first time that I think that Julie wanted me, specifically, to pick her up. When I got home (late; I'm slave-driven) she gave me a look of recognition and was sorta bubbly when I interacted with her, but she seeemed to really want me to pick her up. She got upset when I walked away to go change clothes. It was very touching. She really beemed when I came back. Now I really feel like I have a daughter. Not that I didn't before, but I feel a connection that I didn't really feel before.

Feeding went well. That connection seems to aid in the feeding process. She holds me hands holding the bottle. She even kinda steers it and pulls my hands inward and outward so that the bottle is in optimum position. Five ounces and a bit of bobbin' and it was off to Nappy Land.

Maybe I'm biased, but it really seems like she's trying to talk sometimes. She'll make noises that resemble speech while she has a look in her eye like she's really trying to convey an idea. It's very cute. I think she's going to be talking and walking early. Isn't she special? Had enough self-promotion yet?
