So maybe she's a bit of a ham, but the camera seems to like Aivy more and more as she gets older. Her parents are really enjoying her in her seventh month as she becomes more independent, more self-aware, and more of a unique personality each and every day.
She seems to really like having fun with her parents particularly because we only find ourselves able to spend as much time with her as she deserves on the weekends.
Maybe we need to learn to moderate the amount of attention we shower on Aivy, but she sure seems to enjoy it. And she's doing remarkably well in her daycare.
I feel kinda bad though because when I picked her up from daycare last Friday she had this two-year-old kid in a headlock and was about to put him in some kind of a sleeper hold before I intervened. She needs to learn some restraint, we think.
Because when she had that kid pinned down she just laughed and laughed.
And we suspect that for Aivy it might be Yale or jail (we're really hoping for the former instead of the latter). We hope that she soon realizes that she's half Asian and is supposed to be demure...at least as far as every stereotype would dictate.
But until then she's just going to be Aivy...and we'll love her no matter what.
Even if it means that she builds a rabbit's warren in every pile of warm clean clothes that comes out of the dryer.
And plays with her grandparents like there's no tomorrow.
