The Play Pen
Michelle loaned us her play pen...and Leslie just LOVES it, and it gives me some peace of mind to know that, as she gets more mobile, I can keep her safe while cooking dinner :)

Michelle, again!
I have not blogged in FOREVER!! We went to Michelle Ashe Photography today, and just got too many good pictures, as usual. So I'm gonna post some of my favorites!
This month has given us many firsts. She has eaten her first vegetables. She has finally mastered rolling from stomach to back, so she's rolling all over the place now! She does the "Indian" sound when you pat her mouth. We left her for the first time, and flew to Vegas for four days. While we were gone, she learned the artful task of putting her foot in her mouth (this is also when she accomplished the rolling all over).
With the introduction of solid foods, the high chair was also introduced. She loves it! Since she can't sit up on her own (although she began "tripod-ing" on Sunday), it helps her sit up with her toys in front of her on the tray. She plays contentedly like this for quite a while. Of course, her favorite place is still the changing table. Her mood just brightens there for some reason...it amazes both Jody and me.
Leslie has been a very very happy baby, but I have to say this last month has been the most fun for us so far, excluding the first blissful two weeks after her birth. She actually cries so little that, when she does cry, Jody and I watch and giggle for a minute before we give in to what she wants. That probably sounds cruel, but I suppose we are enamored by everything she does, including her cry! As my mother says, Leslie "smiles with her whole body." It's just this joyful smile. I know that all parents are warmed by their children's smiles, but it's somehow surprising each of the 100 times she smiles each day. We have to work ourselves to death to get a laugh, though ;)
It's crazy that I was a journalism major and can't write any better than this, but I'm just trying to write down everything as quickly as possible so that I will remember when she's done these things, otherwise it'll never get done ;)

A Halloween amongst (future) friends :)
Leslie and her future long-time BFF Elloree share in some Halloween fun.
Roll Over, Beethoven!
That's right...I rolled over from back to front today for the first time (already accomplished the whole front to back thing). This is where I landed:)

My First "Bray Family Reunion"
Ok, so we didn't take pictures at the reunion...we still have to celebrate the day. It was a fun day of hearing "She looks just like her mama!" Leslie also got to spend some time with cousins Cole and Emma Lou. I'm sure one day she'll be running around the church with those two, getting into trouble!

And the squealing begins
Yesterday Leslie started some major squealing. Then she woke us up this morning at 6:45 with her newfound skill. I've tried to get it on camera, but she stops everytime I turn the camera on!

Go Dawgs!
We're a little worried about Bama today. But Leslie did her best to participate in the black-out. You know there's not a lot of black clothes out there for babies :)

She's found her hands, people!
This is a video of Leslie discovering her hands. It's so funny because now that she knows she can control them...she has a hard time getting them to her mouth. Before she knew she could control them, this was not a problem...poor thing!

My first smile
On camera, anyway :) She's only smiled a handful of times, so it's very exciting when she does!
She follows things with her eyes like a pro now, and turns her head toward noises that she hears. Because of her super alertness, it's gotten much harder to put her down for a nap. She still isn't sleeping 6 hours at night like I'd hoped -- we're still only getting 4 and the occasional 5.
