Her Crooked Smile

An update on our little dreamsicle.

We are having too much fun these days. Every day is like going to an Amusement Park for me. I seriously just watch her and wait for an exciting new development to happen. And I egg her on along the way.

She has started solids:
She has taken to them a bit more since this picture. Especially now that I am adding banana to her rice cereal. Such a dramatic picture, her little eyes focusing in on that spoon in disgust.

She is trying her hardest to move. I play this game with her daily, put something right outside her reach. She is determined!

And she is sitting up like a little lady, not quite by herself yet.

Other snippets:

*Juan is back in school. He has no school on Fridays which is a dream, I see him a lot more than I did this summer. And he is working at a student job where I used to work on campus. What a good place.

*I am getting into the groove of life. Actually cooking and cleaning. I never quite got into a routine in Denver, I am loving this. And the basement life, not too shabby. I just have to pop upstairs for some sunlight every now and then to stay sane.

I love when she finally reaches her toy, then looks at you and smiles. She knows her mom is so proud of her. What a cute girl you have. I can't believe how big she is getting!!!

That picture of her and the cereal is tooooo funny! She is so focused on the digusting spoon. I think her strained eyebrows are one of Juans facial expressions!

she is so drama, I love that. Gosh, she is going to start scooting. She is so close. I am so excited to see her next week. I wonder if she will remember us.

I love watching her try to get the toy and the look of accomplishment on her face when she finally gets it! So cute! I put Jordan in my lap to watch it happening so she could learn! And she was totally watching it. lol.
