I recognize that all this is already so within me and only ask that it is manifested and continually revealed in each moment of my blessed life until the day I transition out of this world into the one I came from.
Spirit lives within me.
I am, I is, all that is and in the I is the way, the truth, and the life.

More teefs etc

Within the last week Halliebabe has developed 4 top tooth buds with only one poking out enough for me to legitimately call it a tooth.

She hasn't had too hard of a time with teething, despite the fact that she had a bit of a cold last week and that might have something to do with the teething but most likely she caught the bug that's been going around.

Alex had a cold too and slept in the living room most of the week which was kindof awesome because it meant we had the whole bed to ourselves.

This week has also been a big one for Hallie because she is starting to try to stand on her own. She gently sits down, I don't think she's confident enough yet but so close! She's been walking while hanging onto furniture too which is really impressive.

Oh! Oh! On Friday we went to the park and as I was sitting and talking to some of the other moms Hallie darted off to the playground! I had to chase her and bring her back! I felt like all the other moms who are constantly chasing their toddlers. I was mostly very happy about it though a little but scared at this glimpse into my future.

She's so very fun and VERY talkative. This morning she said something like "Auta!" and I said "Auta?" and she said "YEAH!" Alex heard it too. First conversation? Ha!

Jasmine came over yesterday, I hadn't seen her in 4 years and she spent the afternoon with us. I really like her and she really likes Halena. I think she kept calling her "juanita" but it was probably "bonita".

Ok she just climbed onto the bed after being away for a while and latched onto me hahah. Mama's girl for sure.

Crawling

My sweet little boogeroomonkeybabygirl started crawling last Thursday, Sept 27th. Three knee-steps when I got home from school. Now she's all over the place. She loves to try to climb and tear and eat the poisonous plant we bought I call the HeyMan plant. We say "nuh uh" and she thinks it's funny. Then I laugh too. How can I guide and discipline someone so angelic? She's perfect.

Alex had to watch her this past Tuesday and send me these two gems of my gem.
