Milestone: Sydney Pulls Herself Up!
We have another milestone for our little Sydney!
Yesterday Sydney pulled herself up from a lying down position! She is quite strong and cracks herself up every time she pulls up or holds onto something while standing.
I may not have mentioned this, but on our return flight from Australia on the 16th, Sydney also started waving "hi." Some lady a couple of rows back was waving to her, and she was waving back. Occasionally, she also adds a "heh" sound while waving, which I thikn is how she is trying to say "hi"
We had a great video chat with Francois and Kelly (Syd's godparents) the other day, and we are all excited about our upcoming trip to New Orleans in November. Looks like we're going to stay for about 9-10 days total.
Francois and Kelly are expecting their first child (yippee!!) around Sally's b-day, which is cool because we'll be in New Orleans again in February for Harry's memorial.
Sally had a pretty bad fever (another half a degree and we would have had to take her in ASAP) but she pulled through, no worries and is back to her amiable self. Despite a bit of cradle cap (and a relapse into early AM play sessions), the kid is dang near perfect!
Today we took Sally (all of us, really, but it was intended for Sal) to see "Ratatouille" at the local Castle Rock theater. What a darling movie! I loved it. Sally gets very excited about going to the movies....and since there are at least 3 grown-up movies I want to see, I think we'll be enlisting Cori's help (next door) to babysit so we can get out for a date night.
It was strange to go to the movies without eating popcorn though....oh, didn't I tell you? I'm currently on day 4 of the Master Cleanse (and if you've ever done it, thank you, I accept your congratulations). I figure this is the only fool-proof way to break my sugar addiction, so here goes. I'm committed to doing 10 days, but would love to do 14 or 15. Actually, I didn't miss the popcorn while we were at the show today, but my mouth was watering over the thought of a soda! Ah well, time enough for that.
Later gators!
