This is her, practicing her pout.

I'm still staying up half the night, though, because I have several more books to read for the Writer's Digest Self-Published Books competition in the next couple of weeks. I guess I thought I was a faster reader than I am; it's taking me a long time to get through them. It's worth it, though. I really like the idea that at least one book is going to get plucked out of relative obscurity and get some big attention. I interviewed a fellow a couple of years back who won the contest and wound up with a 2-book deal with-- HarperCollins, I think. I keep hoping the big winner will be one of the ones in my pile, though the odds of that are low (there are thousands of entries; I'm reading about 65 of them).


What a great picture. Keep that on hand when she's in high school. :o)
ReplyDeleteYay! big milestone, that sleeping thru the night thing! Is she scooting along yet? Maybe even crawling?
ReplyDeleteI think you have a prodigy baby.
I should specify that she's *mostly* sleeping through the night-- not every night yet. But yes, she's scooting. :) We have bets on when she's actually going to crawl. My bet is in 2 days. My mom has 5 days, sister has 6, and Anthony has 12 days. She's soooo close. She gets right into crawling position, then rocks back and forth until she gets frustrated.
ReplyDeleteIs it OK to admit I miss her when she's asleep?
Jenna - that is the cutest picture I've seen! Sooo sweet!
ReplyDeleteShe looks like the type to crawl backwards first, which I believe is another sign of genius. ;-)
ReplyDeleteHey, Jenna,
ReplyDeleteAs life goes, I blinked twice and it's suddenly a long time since I last caught up. I just wanted to drop by and congratulate you on your BEAUTIFUL baby! Best of luck to you and yours! :-)
