Signs our Little Baby is not quite a Little Baby Anymore:

CARSEAT---Last weekend, we finally moved Gaby to a forward facing carseat. Now, this may not sound like a big deal but, to me, it sure feels like it. There's just something about having her face forward that just signals the end of having a little baby and the beginning of having a "big girl". I removed the passenger seat headrest and she just loooves looking out the front and being able to see where she's going:)

NO!---It's been probably a couple of months or so, but Gaby has gotten the hang of shaking her head at me when she doesn't want to eat anymore or doesn't want a certain toy or doesn't want to be put down, etc etc. Let me tell you- my little sweetie already has a pretty strong will and knows exactly what she wants and what she doesn't!

UNDERSTANDING---It's amazing how much Gaby can understand of what you tell her! Poor thing is gettting bombarded with two languages all the time. So she knows some things in Spanish and some in English, but she sure does get alot of what we ask or tell her.

NAPPING---For the last couple of weeks, Gaby has gone down to one nap a day like a big girl. She decided to drop her afternoon nap so she could watch Oprah with Mommy:)

WALKING---Gaby is walking up a storm! She is definitely walking more than crawling now and sometimes even runs. Before when she would fall she would just start crawling as if to say- It'll be easier this way. Now, she just gets back up and keeps on walking. She looks like a little drunk person when she walks and loves walking with her hands up in the air. Her favorite activity is to chase the dogs in circles. Poor Rosko and Ozzie. On that note, she is also practically saying their names. It's the most adorable thing you've ever heard. It's like- "Othskoo and Othzeeee"!
