The exciting life of the Löfmans
Noemi first Christmas was one filled with lots of gifts and toys that make all sort of noise. My mother and grand mother was there and Chiquitas mother and father payed a little visit. Dominique also celebrated Christmas with us. We had made lots of yummy Christmas food and drank really nice Christmas beer (well, at least I did :-)).
For Noemi swimming above the surface doesn’t exist yet, so it is more learning diving. This Sunday she dove/swam between Chiquita and me and then from me to Chiquita. It was very exciting, and a little nerve wrecking. But, Noemi passed with flying colours.
A study of Noemi’s crawl technique. She has one technique for “slippery ” floors and one when she has more friction. She ain’t stupid you know.
Noemi is really good at climbing. She is also pretty good at falling. But, she never gives up. “Climbing is a way of life”, she says. It is hard not to be inspired by the courage and heart of this young girl. She is an inspiration to us all.
Well, perhaps not … but the most recent progress is that Noemi is trying to climd just about anything; table, sofa, lamp, me, chair, box, carpet … well not carpet but just about everything that’s a little higher that the floor. Oh, and yes … but this is old news … she is crawling around on the floor in two ways; either a perfect on the knees and hands routine or a little more lazy version of dragging herself forward with her hands.
Pictures you say!? Yes, we have photos and video of this but this will have to come later. I’m posting from work.
See ya!
