The Belén Update


So here are the latest developments with the smallest and most charming girl I know. Belén is…
Developing a sense of humor – thinks the same parts on baby einstein videos are funny, made up her own little game of giving me her binkie and taking it back, and gets almost hysterical during hide-and-seek with dad and parachute baby with her blankie
Eats her fruits now too – when it came to solids Bel was totally sold on veggies but the sweetness and textures of the fruits took some getting used to.
Loves her dad – she gets SO excited when he comes home – she will crawl to anywhere in the house by his voice distracts her from eating and keeps her awake when she’s tired. So dad can’t be around if we’re trying to get anything done
During Thanksgiving break she…
-had her first taste of Diet Coke (this is Grandpa Wood’s fault – as I always knew it would be – although he blames Bel)
-ate her first French fry
-learned to wave (she’s still learning so doesn’t have a 100% response rate, but she does a great wrist flop when properly coaxed

YAY BEL!! I'm proud to have been a recipient of one of those first and very adorable wrist flops. Just go easy on the coke girl.

Gramma will be watching grandpa very carefully this Christmas when the coke is around. Love all the new pictures to look at 10X each day. I am so glad we got to see a milestone reached - we miss so many - she is growing sooooo fast. Love you all, and happy birthday to the cool man in the house.

Haha! I loved this post. And I am shocked that Dr. Wood beat Cindy Miller to sharing his diet coke! :) I guess it was going to happen from one angle or another! I can't wait to see you guys!
