Tasha's bag of tricks...

Friends and family members have recently said "everytime I see Natasha she's doing some new trick"... and it's so true.

Right before Christmas she started 'singing' along whenever Sarah or I sang Jingle Bells or some other happy carol. It was unbelievable. Then she started doing this thing that apparently Sarah also did as a baby. Whenever someone would hold her, she'd throw her head backwards to try and see whatever is behind her. A few people were startled and a little confused. Get a grip their granny, Tasha's takin you for a ride.

Recently she adapted that move into what can only be described as her own little pony ride. She'll sit on someone's lap or knee and throw all her weight back and forth and rock herself while you support / steady her. The best part is, she starts laughing uncontrollably.

Of course she also blows raspberries constantly and is our own little bubble machine. Those cute little razzing sounds never get old.

She seems to be close to rolling all the way over to her tummy. She gets to a side, then rolls right back. That is apparently a 5 month thing, so we won't pressure her too much!
