Teeth!

About a week before her first birthday, Reese finally has two little teeth poking through her bottom gums. She has been working on these for about the last 6 months, drooling everywhere, and finally her hard work has paid off! She's doing great, sleeping well (and, consequently, we're finally sleeping well) and eating more and more. While she's added some pureed meats to her menu, and will make a complete mess of a teething biscuit after dinner, she still won't each much in the way of table food or anything with too much texture. With her new teeth, though, maybe she'll start warming up to the idea.

Reese is pulling herself up a lot more now and "walking" down the couch with only one arm. She's much more confident in her ability so I'm sure standing on her own and walking aren't far away.

We're in Show Low this weekend by ourselves and realized yesterday that this might be the first weekend we've spent alone (just the 3 of us) in a long time. That's kind of the territory when you're homeless and squatting in everyone else's house :) The cabin is looking great. They put all the drywall up on Friday and Saturday and will start mudding on Monday (post inspection). CK's waiting on decking and siding to arrive so he can finish the exterior.

Reese and I did some walking around Woodland Lake yesterday and everyone there seemed to know her! Guess the morning walks with Jane, Jan and Carolyn have turned her into quite the celebrity.

I'm 25 weeks today, getting bigger every day. I realized we haven't taken any belly shots this time around. Guess a lot of things change with the 2nd one, huh?
