Double-fisting

When Sydney was an infant, Brian and I stood in awe watching her wake. She would be semi-swaddled in her bassinet. The waking process began as she unfurled each limb, then began to stretch and roll in nonsensical directions. Eventually her eyes would pop open and she would take in her surroundings. So cute!!!

Now when she wakes, she groggily sits up from whatever position that only a baby could make look comfortable. With her eyes somewhat closed she immediately begins searching for a pacifier and her frog, Webster. Again, usually her eyes are closed and she may not be sitting erect yet, but her radar quickly detects her treasures that were misplaced during the night.



The next stage of the wake-up process is Sydney hoisting herself to a standing position while clenching her frog. Sometimes Chloe the elephant keeps Webster company in the crib and she too is a part of this process. Still so cute!!!
