And so the endless chasing begins! Ara is like a wind-up-toy now; you have to constantly take her back to a starting point so she doesn't get too far out of range. We even got out this giant tent-like fort that Joey has and she squealed with joy as she crawled through it. Ara is ecstatic to finally be mobile (translation: follow Joey). I will post the tent photos soon, I took them on my sister's camera and I haven’t transferred them here yet. I have been making all of Ara's finger foods and she has decided (to my delight) that she would just rather eat that than the jars of baby food. I'm so flattered! No one has ever liked my cooking before. I do wonder though what to do, as I stare at the cupboard FILLED with jars of baby food. I'm feeling really lethargic, I have been going hard core on the diet and I think it is just the adjustment period. I had gotten used to carbs, and I am craving something sweet so much! Plus Ara is all of the sudden so much faster than she used to be! I went to the birth center for a routine exam and I was really surprised how emotional I was. I was flooded with memories, good memories. I have such a warm spot in my heart for that place and the women who work there (sorry I've never seen a male working there). The midwives and nurses are the most caring people you can ever hope to come across in the health industry. I can't say enough about them, I hope someday the world will suddenly change and money hungry no heart hospitals and insurance companies will look to places like the Birth and Woman's Health Center for inspiration.
And... I'm tired and rambling. Goodnight!
