our reesey-bear had a big day this week...more evidence that our baby is growing up.
now that she is a year old, she's able to face forward in the car like a big girl. kyle and i made a big deal of it and she seemed so excited at her new view. we quickly discovered a downside to her new view though... she can see almost everything we are doing in the front seat without her...like eating. she told us in no uncertain terms how she felt about being left out of her favorite past-time.
reese surprised us, and maybe even herself, when she successfully attempted to climb our stairs. we were right there with her each step of the way and she did great. kyle went to the gym while i was on the phone and the next thing i know she's managed to climb all the way upstairs...all by herself to my shock. mommy will be keeping a much closer eye on our new little turbo climber. oh and, daddy bought and put up a gate that day.
and reesey's last big girl feat for the day was sitting through, and seeming to enjoy, an entire movie at a theater. we had our first showing of the house and needed to make ourselves scarce. daddy went to the gym so reesey and i went to see Hotel for Dogs. for the first 45 minutes, she sat so still i had to keep peeking around her to see if she was sleeping. she wasn't. it was a cute movie and i'm sure she liked all the puppies. the only time she fussed was towards the end of the movie when she finished a Red Vine and wanted another. i didn't realize until we left the theater that she had red ALL around her mouth and on her little hand from the licorice. it was so cute. should have taken a picture.
it's so hard to believe that the little 6 pound baby we brought home barely more than a year ago is getting to be such a big girl already. it just seems that we love her more with each passing day.
