It&#8217;s about space and the sky.  Quite captivating, and Analise just loves it.  She has this cute little habit of making a &#8220;oooooo&#8221; mouth and sound when she&#8217;s excited about something (shown in the first picture above). She&#8217;s full of oooooos and squeals when this DVD is on.  Note: There&#8217;s not that much TV watching in our house, especially for Analise.  This is the only thing she gets to watch, and only once a week or so, but it&#8217;s nice because she&#8217;ll curl up in your lap and watch the whole 30 minutes!<\/p>\n<p><u><b>Sweet Moments<\/b><\/u><br \/>\nAs Analise is getting older, I know there will be less and less quiet moments with her.  She&#8217;s an active one!  Recently, I&#8217;ve been reading on the couch in the morning.  She&#8217;ll play by herself, for quite a while.  But about 2 hours after she&#8217;s been up, she&#8217;ll start getting a little bit whimpery, crawl over to the couch, and pull herself up close to me.  That&#8217;s the signal that she&#8217;s ready to snuggle.  Then she&#8217;ll let me pull her close and we snuggle into the corner of the couch.  Her thumb will go into her mouth, and she&#8217;ll curl up on my chest, sometimes falling asleep (other times, just rest for 10 minutes and then pop up ready to go again).  It&#8217;s so sweet to pull her close and have her fall asleep on my chest.
