Lena and the Mobile

[dreamshark]

Amber's cousin Jill and her husband visited them last weekend, and somehow after Jill and Jay left they had a new crib. I think Jill had been delegated by the Tatge family to buy a group gift for the baby and that's what happened. Jill took some great pictures, including pictorial proof that even though Little Lena has learned to smile and laugh she still has an array of more serious expressions featuring her very mobile eyebrows. But the knockout pictures were Lena watching the rotating mobile mounted on her new crib.

If you're really into this, you don't want to miss the movie version (last item in the gallery). There is apparently one angle on that mobile that Lena especially loves, and you can see her anticipating it coming 'round again and then exploding into laughter when it does. Towards the end of the video she is starting to reach out toward the mobile with her left hand (obviously having no idea how far away from her it is).

Her looks of anticipation and squeals of delight are just darling! Silly grownups having conversations while there's this wonderful object to behold.

Thank you so much for posting this! She is incredibly adorable!!! I love that she's dressed in tye-dye!

Yep, we gave her that outfit for Christmas. We figure it's part of our family obligation to keep our granddaughter perpetually outfitted in tie-dye.

The headband is especially cute! Nice touch. :)

Actually it is a little knit cap, but it does look like a headband in these pictures. And it serves the same purpose as Richard's knit caps - covers up the fact that she has no hair.

Everyone needs a cause! I feel it's my obligation to keep all the grands supplied with cute little things.

The link does not bring me to a movie, but to my own Google Drive. ?

Well, that's odd. It should take you to the copy of Jill's picture gallery that I copied from her Google Drive to mine. Here's the link again, copied directly from the place on my Google drive that says "anyone with a link can view." Please let me know if it works. If it does not, could you try clearing your cache and hitting the link again? I would like to know how this works. Thanks.

I see a photo album titled "Lena" with 37 photos in it.

That did it! She does seem very excited by *something* she's tracking.

Richard needs to see this!
