The Dinwiddie Family: John, Rebecca, and Jaclyn
This wasn't the best photo shoot for Jaclyn, but we still got a couple of cute ones. We learned an important lesson though; never give your baby antibiotics like amoxicillin before trying to get them to smile on cue. The shoot was about an hour after we medicated her, so she was completely lethargic and ready to fall asleep the entire time. We tried everything to get a real smile out of her, but to no avail!
Jaclyn has been up to a lot this month. Unfortunately we have been dealing with all three of us taking turns getting sick (Jaclyn came down with bronchitis, Daddy had strep throat, and fortunately, I just caught a little cold), so I havn't had much time to update the blog this month! Above, you can see a short slip of her crawling. She now can take about three or four actual crawling steps before she falls and has to resort to more of an "Army Crawl," or simply rolling around to get from one place to another.She's also starting to pull herself up onto her feet to do a hands and feet crawl, instead of using her knees and feet. We're a little nervous that she may be walking before we expected it. It's definitely a lot more work taking care of a mobile baby than a stationary one!!!
Here's another clip of Jaclyn feeding herself Cheerios. It took her a couple of days, but she's definitely got it down. Once again, she thinks she's hilarious and whenever you watch her do something for an extended period of time she starts laughing. SOOO CUTE!!!
Finally, here's Jaclyn on Halloween. She was sick, so we didn't dress her up, but we figured we'd still take pictures of her by the pumpkins Grammie brought over to attract trick or treaters (since we never got around to carving any ourselves this year).
