Magic Words

Gabby said Mama.
I even have witnesses.
I didn't think it was possible to be anymore crazy about her, but hearing her say Mama.
Dang! :)

Lucky



How lucky am I to have this little person in my life?!

Everyday I am simply dumbfounded by how cool she is. She was awesome 7 months ago but each day she does something that blows me away. Like figuring out waving. Granted she is doing it backwards but she is getting it. Or blowing bubbles. Again they are quite messy but she is getting it. Or that she doesn't like chicken but rather beef. And really can we blame her?

One of my worst...

So I have many fears being a new Mom. MANY. One came to fruition yesterday.
Gabby rolled off her changing table. I had her by her ankle as I always have one hand on her but she is really starting to move and she moved her way all the way off the table. Which is three feet high and we have wood floors.
I was so upset I couldn't even speak on the phone to her doctor's office. I ripped my boss's head off and was near hysterical when my husband came into her room.
Thankfully it scared both of us more than anything.
She has no marks and was in good spirits all day yesterday. Just was a snuggle bug.
Needless to say we stayed home with her.
To think this is only the beginning.
I really am not looking forward to what else is in store.

It's Possible


So Gabby and I believe very strongly that the Packers won because she and I both wore Packer gear. :)

Breakfast of Champions...

My dear friend Annie celebrated the virtues of a yellow cake with chocolate frosting recently in her blog. This morning I was fortunate enough to have not only a big slice of that for breakfast but also so yummy coffee. My parents bought me a new coffee maker and it is lovely. Basically you insert a packet push a button and viola coffee. Fantastic.
Bonus to this morning The Aviator is on. I am fascinated with Howard Hughes. Not sure why and didn't get a chance to see this when it came out. Also my favorite baby is watching it with me. She has developed a hilarious personality and is rarely not happy. We are very fortunate.
Back to the movie....
Have a mentioned how much I love Saturdays?
