Spring is getting closer, and Kimberly is getting LAAAAARRRRGER!

But she doesn't yet like movies about Gladiators. At least I assume she doesn't - she hasn't told me otherwise.

She is growing in leaps and bounds though - we haven't weighed her in a month, but she's about to make the jump to size 2 diapers. Its strange to look at pictures from only a month or two ago - she is so tiny in them compared to now. Her upper body control is getting very good as well. With a little help, she's able to sit up "on her own" for a little bit of time. She seems to enjoy sitting in her bumbo seat when we're in the kitchen. When on her stomach, she's able to lift her head up to almost 90 degrees for several seconds at a time, with only small breaks. Also, she's constantly moving her legs in a crawling motion. We figure she'll be crawling the second she can get her weight off of the ground.

Not surprisingly, Kimberly is still a very happy baby. She likes to smile and laugh and make noises at people. When you imitate her, she gets a bigger smile and "talks" more. For a couple of weeks, she was sticking her tongue out and/or blowing bubbles almost constantly. We think she's discovered her hands and mouth now, because she's started to drag things she can grab to her mouth.
