Update

Well from the last post you saw that our little Ms. is crawling. She's even more mobile now. She doesn't exactly chase you around the apartment, she basically follows you. Just to make sure you're in her sights. She started this a few days ago. My mom was getting her bath ready and then she turned around and little Ms. Bela was in the doorway of the bathroom! That evening I was making her soup and she was in the living room and decided to come see what I was up to in the kitchen. So needless to say it's time for baby proofing! So today Juan and I will venture out and pick up a baby gate so she doesn't bounce down the stairs and some cupboard hooks so she stays out of the cleaning products!
Shortly after deciding she could crawl, she started standing. She pushed herself up onto Juan one morning and that evening she stood up on the couch! Apparently she has aspirations of walking sooner rather than later.
Our day consists of Bela making her way around the living room playing with toys - making stops at the guitars to pluck a few strings and of course play with the electronics (TV cable box etc.) And Momma pulling her away from all of the above and trying to distract her long enough so that she forgets what she was playing with.
This past week we have weaned her off of her night bottle - most nights she is sleeping all the way through the night, which is great for me! Also she's going to bed earlier (around 7/7:30) in order to start her on a schedule that will work better with waking up early to go to daycare *sigh* Speaking of which, I'm not looking forward to going back to work. I think most Moms all go through this. If someone out there wins the lottery, can I have around 50G's? Then I can pay off my work and not go back??? It would be awesome - I think I should start praying on that. Maybe not winning the lottery, but for Juan to get his dream job so that I can stay home and raise our little Ms.
