It never ceases to amaze me how much our baby girl can move! She does many things at 2.5 months that, sadly, our precious little Nicholas was never able to do. This video shows her moving and shaking one of her rattles before bedtime the other night. These simple milestones are so wonderful to witness and make me so happy.

having 2 kids before Sky who reached all the mile stones was amazing, but ya know Sky has his own set of mile stones, but I call them inch stones. SMA is its own world. She is beautiful and such an amazing gift! many hugs
I love that-inch stones! Yes, Nicholas has achieved many inch stones, too! :) Could you add us as readers of your blog? I couldn't access it because it's private.
