Gaby's Newest Trick- Gaby has learned that if she brings us a book we will inevitably read it to her. Now at first this was just the cutest thing ever, but you can imagine that it can also be very frustrating for poor Mommy and Daddy. Of course, she has her favorites so I can't tell you how many times I've read "At the Zoo", "Sooo Big", "Touch and Feel Baby Animals", and "Where is Baby's Bellybutton?". I can recite them for you by memory, if you'd like:) I'm sure it'll be a great party trick one day. Good news is that our little sweetie will hopefully be an avid reader. Sometimes she'll sit and read out loud to herself. She's so smart:)
Walking Update- Everyone always told me- one day she'll just take off walking and there's no looking back. I'm finding that that is not the case with our little princess. Everyday she gets braver, tries more often, and walks one or two more steps than she did the day before. It really is so amazing to see it! It seems silly to get excited about it every time but if you could just see the look on her face, you would get excited too. You can tell she is just having a ball and that she herself can't believe she's walking on her own. You can't help but clap and cheer because she's laughing and clapping herself. She is so darn cute:)! I have been so lucky to be around to watch her!
On a sad note- I am going back to work. Yes, that is right, I will reenter the working world this week. I have mixed emotions. Some days I think it'll be nice to be out amongst adults again and other days I just want to hang out with my sweet and stay in my pjs until mid-morning. But the time has come. I've stayed home for 7 months now and the extra income will be greatly appreciated. I have found a really great nanny for Gaby and hope that she will work out long term. Did I mention I'll only be working two days a week ;) Don't feel too bad for me- heehee!
