Journal Excerpt

She is such a roly-poly baby now. She grips her legs with her hands. She wriggles around while sucking her fists. She is all oodles of chub and soft folds of skin. She has little dimples on her elbows and knees.

Her legs and feet have a soft, pliant, unused look about them, like vestigial limbs. I can move them around however I want; sometimes I scratch her forehead with her toes.

She is definitely in a very cute phase. Soon she will be tearing around bumping into corners and throwing things off the table. For now she smiles and sucks her fists and lies there looking like a little tasty dumpling.
