Dancing

It is so totally cool when you realize your baby understands what you're saying. Just the day before yesterday she was in my womb. And yesterday she was only a newborn. How can she now understand what we're saying??

I actually thought she was having seizures. No lie. But Andy informed me that it was dancing I was mistaking for a medical condition. I have always been a bit fearful of something going wrong with this sweet pea but I swear it looked like a seizure to me. As she began to seize more and more frequently I started to relax and believe Andy that Ella was indeed dancing. The icing on the cake was when I said, "Are you dancing?" and she started to "dance". Then, I not only realized she was dancing but I also realized she understood what I was saying! What an awesome moment. I feel a deeper connection with her now that we are starting to communicate.

Here is my sweet girl dancing (while gumming chicken)...
