Your Mama Never Was Consistent

Hey Baby Girl,

If mama doesn't watch it, your next post will be sometime after college! Just exaggerating - but what have we missed?

A. You cut your first tooth. It's sharp, you can't quite see it yet but you can feel it. It isn't interfering with your breast feeding thank goodness.

B. You pull to stand and you cruise (your mom just learned that term - it means you walk along the edges of furniture - might be more fun if they termed it "edge walking").

C. Your arms have grown so now you can bend down from "edge walking" to pick up any interesting items from off the floor.

D. You wave buhbye (but only sporadically).

E. You have a mullet. YES! But fortunately your hair is curly and it doesn't really show yet :)

F. You eat solid food. Not all the time but you've eaten baby mush stuff and pieces of fruit. It's cute to watch and now that you've got that tooth...

What else? Well you're the cutest baby we've ever had. You're getting pretty big too but compared to your ginormous brothers, you're still the petite, ladylike thing. And you're maintaining your status as the resident female as your Auntie Sri and Uncle Sasi had a boy baby recently.

People ask me if I just LOVE being a mom and isn't it so GREAT and I have to tell them that it is life being a mom, with ups and downs and ease and challenge. But I wouldn't trade it cuteness - love you very much.

Mom
