Baby has graduated to the long bath! She was apprehensive at first, and cried a little when I put her into the water. But she soon warmed up to it and started splashing the water gleefully.

We put up the Xmas tree and other Xmas paraphernalia today. Baby loved to look at the Xmas lights but was scared of the dancing Santa. Guess she still doesn’t know that that’s the man who gives little children presents. :)

Baby loves to pull herself to stand. Every time I hold her hands to pull her to sit up, she would want to stand up right away! And the cute thing is Baby thinks she’s really steady now and would let go of my hands once she’s standing upright. Of course, she sways and tumbles, but it’s adorable to see her so proud of herself!

Baby got her first bruise today. Thank God it’s a really minor one. She likes playing with the Barney phone and as with all other things, she likes to swing it around, and quite violently too. :) So today, Baby somehow managed to swing it into her own face, and gave her cheek a shiner. She screamed in pain for a while but recovered after a while. Hope she learns to control her own actions a little better.
