ahhhh. there is nothing i like better than having nothing on my list to do. let me correct myself, on my need to do soon list. i have my 6 week post delivery appointment today, so claire went to daycare to play with her friends. this little visit is long overdue for her. she misses them dearly and says their names often. i think she says their names so she doesn't forget them. anyway, she was thrilled for her day of excitement and i was equally thrilled for my day of doing whatever i choose. those who know me well, know that i wouldn't be laying around, sleeping or relaxing. instead, i've been cleaning, doing laundry, writing thank you notes, organizing, and fixing a few things that k've been meaning to do for awhile. it feels great. to top off my super great day....i am wearing prepregnancy jeans! yahoo!! i still have weight to lose, but it definitely is rewarding to see some success. hopefully i'll get the okay to resume exercise and normal activity today, so i can get back to the gym. i also have jillian's 30 day shred coming in the mail. i don't think i've ever been so excited to exercise.
Claire is nine months old. She is such an active kid, always on the go. She no longer lays nicely when we change her diaper. It is quite the challenge. She is getting rather quick at crawling, so we have to move just as quickly to keep her out of where she doesn't belong--the fridge, cupboards, etc. Developmentally, she is right on track or maybe a bit advanced in our biased eyes. She crawls, pulls herself up, is beginning to move from one piece of furniture to another, mostly eats table food, and imitates us (both in the noises we make or actions--knocking on a door). When we hold her hands, she is beginning to take steps without much guidance. On Saturday, she made her first attempt to climb a step. Sadly, it ended with her sliding down. She has three teeth--two on the bottom, one on top with another coming in on top. Ten things we love about her: 1. her smile 2. her curiosity 3. the way she holds our hands or her own hands when she sleeps 4. her easy-goingness 5....
