on moving objects, especially those with lights or bright colors. She still loves the traditional ceiling fan, but now her mobile really captures her attention. The toys you have been so wonderful to provide for her, such as her rocking chair with the dancing animals (Jason and Theresa!) or lights flashing to music (Paula and Mike!) and her tummy-time mat (Aunt Mandy and Uncle Mitch!) are really coming in handy. We are especially thankful for these new-found skills at night, when Mira cheers on the twirling animals as she falls asleep in her crib - between 11 and midnight with little fuss, every night this week!
