FAITH IS WALKING!!! She took her first steps on Friday afternoon (4/10/09) and I couldn't believe my eyes. This was truly one of my proudest mommy moments as I watched her walk back and forth between my husband, my mom, and I. It was exhilirating as I had waited for so long to see those first steps and I was just thrilled! We captured it on tape fortunately and she's been dabbling in it throughout the weekend. I think it will take some time before she's walking full time but baby steps, right?!!
So from that excitement to my mommy meltdown about her lack of napping. What is this all about? I'm human so I'll say that I find this new trend to be quite frustrating!! We went from two naps down to one most of the time. For awhile we were getting a nice hour and a half or two hour nap and that is fabulous for Faith and mommy. So this new resistance to napping is not only perplexing but downright frustrating at times. I will say it's not my proudest mommy moment to be frustrated by this, but I don't think I'm the only one to ever feel this way! (at least I hope not!)
We had a very nice Easter weekend! Faith did awesome (in spite of the aforementioned lack of sleep) and seemed to enjoy being with family and enjoying all the fun that Easter brings. We took her for pictures and she was a champ there too. So I suppose I should remind myself of those things when times get tough or challenging. I did find myself quite thankful when she was so good at Church as the girl next to us had no less then three full on meltdowns. Yikes!! Other than the temporary insanity right before the company arrived here for Easter dinner, everything was great!!
I did get a new job I am very happy to report. I'm a bit nervous admittedly as it could be a biggie and it's the first bigger one I've had since some of my "hiccups" but I'm hoping I get back on track. Only 10 days until vacation and though I have major anxiety about leaving my baby love and have tons to do before we leave, I must say that I'm looking forward to it!
