Bela February Update

Currently, Bela is walking - yes, walking - around the house. Our little girl is now an upright. Although I think she still prefers to crawl, everyday she's taking more steps on her own and starting to walk to get to her toys instead of crawling. Also, yesterday she started to stand. She started to do this last week, but we never witnessed it. On occasion, we would see her upright, but there was nothing around for her to pull herself up on, so we just assumed she stood. But we actually saw her stand up all by herself last night. And this morning she is continuing to do so. So we are in trouble around her - lock up everything, Bela is on the loose!

We went through another bout of illness the last two weeks. Bela started with the sniffles which turned into an eye infection - the first round of antibiotics. This turned into a fever and she seemed to be well for a couple of days. Then she came down with a fever again. We went to the doctor and she had a chest infection. Another round of antibiotics and corticosteriods later she's on the mend. I also came down with her cold, only I got an ear infection from it. I also went through two rounds of antibiotics and have almost kicked it. Ugh, we are *almost* healthy around here.
