Penny has always had really good head/neck control, but she is getting stronger every day. I got a mommy/baby work out tape. She is weight resistance for me most of the workout, but the last 15 mins is baby yoga. She does great with all the tummy time exercises. Here is her tummy time photo shoot this morning:
Now that she is awake more we do lots of activities. Yesterday we went to the YWCA and walked 2 miles on the indoor track. Well, I did the walking and she slept in the stroller for most of the time. I'm so glad I have this option. It is getting way too cold to take her outside for long walks and I'm going stir crazy to be in the house all day. Then today we did swimming in the bathtub for the first time. She kicks her legs like a hyper little frog. I've never gotten so many smiles at one time. We'll have to do that more often. Plus, we did more of the word cards my mom sent. We have 2 boxes of word cards and 5 boxes of bits (word cards with pictures) from when I was a kid so we've got lots of learning to do! After all of that Penelope was all pooped out---picture to prove it:

What a wonderful baby. I can't believe it has been 8 weeks already. Laura, thanks for keeping us all up to date.
Super cute diaper loading shirt!
Does Penelope like tummy time? Evie screams and cries every time we try to do tummy time and just lays there flailing.
Penelope is getting sooooo big!!! I too love the diaper loading t-shirt! She is just getting cuter and cuter......thanks for letting us know what she is up to these days.... Hugs & kisses!!
Haha cute! I love the first tummy time picture, she looks like she's workin HARD!
She's in a room with a 4:1 ratio. The biggest reason she doesn't get as much attention as the other babies is because she's a very calm baby. She can sit there without crying or be put in a swing and fall asleep for 2 hours. Doesn't mean she should be put in the swing :-/
I'm very tempted to look for a job in the evenings so that she doesn't have to be in daycare.
