Life is so crazy and busy and also oh so wonderful. Working and being a mom of an active little baby is a lot harder than I thought it would be. At times I feel I am treading water at school and trying to keep our house clean. But at the end of the day picking up my Rose and spending the rest of my day playing and spending time with her and Kevin are really all that matter. Papers might be graded and returned later than before, and there might be dirty dishes in the sink and laundry to do, and I may not do as many fun cute activities (that take forever to prepare for), but I am treasuring every minute at home when I am at home with Miss Rose.
Rose is officially a walker. The other night I asked Kevin when we would say Rose is actually walking and he responded with when she is walking more than crawling. Well that time is now. Its crazy how just one day she will begin to do something. And I'm not sure the day exactly (in the last week or so) Rose decided she was a walker. She will still fall down, but gets right back up. She no longer needs to hold on to something to pull up, but will stand from her bear crawl stance.
Its crazy how much she picks up. I'm used to this baby that cries, eats, and sleeps and thats it, but she is this little person who interacts and learns/does new things daily. A few things she does that crack me up:
Brushes her hair when you ask her to
Walks to her high chair and whines when she wants to eat
Points at her sippy and whines for it when she wants a drink
Uses the IPAD like me! She will use her finger and move it down
I was feeding Rose and we were listening to music when happy and you know it came on she began clapping
Gives kisses to her animals or baby when you ask her to
Waves and says bye bye
Goes and gets her books and baby when you ask her to
When you even say the would bottle she freaks out and wants it NOW-we are already having to spell words out loud
Roars/Yells when you ask her what a lion says
Literally chases Ronny around the house
Heres our last week in pictures :)

I can't believe Rose was ever little enough to use this thing! We got it out to give to Lucas and Rachel and thought we would put Rose in it, she slept in it until she was about 4 or so months! |
