Yesterday, I took the Brimeister to the mall to take advantage of the after-Christmas sales. We had so much fun! Earlier that morning Bri recognized herself in the mirror for the first time. Usually she just ignores the baby in the mirror and studies the Mommy in the mirror. It was really fun to watch her surprise as the baby in the mirror mimicked her every move. She started smiling and laughing. I loved it! So while we were at the mall I took her to the Macy's dressing room and showed her the tri-fold mirror. There were babies all over the place! She was mesmerized. I loved watching her face light up as she recognized each one. Her eyes kept bouncing from one baby to the next and then up at all the Mommies.
She also showed real interest in a toy for the first time yesterday. While we were waiting for our lunch I started playing with one of her pacifiers; making it zoom around her car seat. She followed it with her eyes for a really long time and tried to grab it. She could follow it vertically and horizontally. And when I brought it in towards her nose she would go cross-eyed! So cute! We had lots of fun shopping. It was a very special Mommy-daughter day.

So glad that Bri was feeling better to enjoy so many firsts on the fun shopping day with Mom!
Those moments are like magic, aren't they? :-) And hello, that photo? Bri is such a cutie!
