Lots Happening Here at the Smoko House


So many new things....

1. Molly has crawled, however is not officially crawling.
2. Tonight, I put Molly to bed and a few minutes later heard her yelling. Not crying, but yelling. I went in. She was STANDING in her crib, had thrown her pacifier and had a HUGE smile on her face. While I did think this was oh so cute, I could not encourage this behavior so I just laid her down and tucked her back into bed. The whole time, I was nearly bursting that my little baby was standing in her crib looking like she was about 3.
3. Molly and I are fairing quite well while Dad is at training, loving the new airline he is working for. Our morning routine involves me getting up and getting ready and then getting Molly up. She gets propped on the bed with a bottle (see picture) and feeds herself breakfast while I make mine and then join her on the bed. Together, we watch the news and prepare for our day...I think about how I am going to handle teenagers with attitudes and she thinks about pulling Gordon's ears, rough housing with Papa, jumping and spitting.

Molly! Suddenly, you are like 18! Feeding yourself breakfast??? Can you come over and teach Charlie and Alex how to do that?

I love you!!!

Dear Molly,

My goodness! It's getting hard to keep up with you....It'll be even harder tomorrow and the next day and the next.......You'll have a lot to show Daddy when he returns.

Our grandparental pride runneth over!
