Baby Action

Oh my gosh, Babygirl is walking! It apparently started last weekend when she “let go” and stepped a couple of steps for her Grandmommy P. Then on Monday, we stopped Big D’s house while we were out walking. Babygirl saw Remy (the French bulldog) and let go of my hand and took two steps to Remy so she could tackle him. Best baby-dog ever, by the way.

Mapgeek and I are babysitting Bandit, aka Track Star, my brother and sista-in-law’s cat, while they are away. Babygirl LOVES this cat. Best baby-cat ever, by the way. You’ve never seen such a cat. He loves to be around people and just follows us around the house. And he purrs and snuggles up against Babygirl, all while she’s pulling his tail and grabbing his collar. Anyways, she walks to him constantly. A few steps here, a few steps there…

We also attempted to start swimming lessons this week. More for Mommy’s sake than Babygirl’s. We’re taking swimming at a local dive shop, SeaVentures, that happens to have an indoor pool. We’re also taking with one of our fellow Stroller Striders and her son. I got Babygirl all suited up in the brand new swim diapers and the cutest new bathing suit, when Sister Stroller Strider walked in and informed the 12 of us (6 mommies and 6 babies) that class was cancelled. Someone threw up and no one could enter the pool for 30 minutes. Basically our entire class time. All 12 of us were very disappointed and the mommies were discussing the fine art of drinking pool water and barfing, when the throw-up boy’s mommy apologized. I felt so horrible for her because it really wasn’t that big of a deal. I mean, sure the dive shop is refunding us for that class, but who’s to say Babygirl won’t be the upchucker next week.

Lots going on here in the fine town of Roswell. More to come!

Baby Girl is growing up so fast! She's fearless too with the animals! Mairin is a cutie pie!

Am I getting the "Relative Special"? If not, be careful what you advertise. I've got a few friends with kids that would love to not stand in line!
