At one point while she was exploring her hands and fingers she managed to get one of those crazy thumbs into her mouth for a few seconds. She was a bit baffled by it, but we're hoping she may find it for real before too long. Either that or figure out how to put that pacifier back in her mouth on her own :)
A second big moment for her was when she accidentally rolled from her tummy to her back. As with the thumb, this was a total accident and she hasn't done anything similar since, but still ... it's a big deal for a little kid.
Kate also had her first experience with the exersaucer on Saturday night. She'd been doing so well at holding her head up and pushing down with her feet that we thought we'd give it a try. We think she really likes the different view, but obviously can't handle it for too long.
Kate also got to see what it's like to have a fire in the fireplace ... that's right, we had a fire in the middle of July! Can you believe that our highs were in the low 60s this past weekend?!?! What happened to summer?! At least it was in the 70s today, but nights are still predicted as pretty chilly.
On a different note, last week we said good-bye to our crazy cat, Pounce, and found him a new home. As Matt so eloquently put it in our Craig's List posting, "we don't need another reason to be woken up in the middle of the night". For awhile now a neighborhood cat has come in our yard to torment Pounce, who then would take it out on Shadow. We had one too many experiences of being woken up, or having kids wake up, because of a terrible cat fight in the basement. So ... adios Pounce. Enjoy your new family!
