Brightwood Lights

And another month has flown by. . .

Simona is getting huge, the weather is getting (mercifully!) cooler, and we are getting busier day by day!  Grad school has kept me hopping, as I have a slew of papers, projects, and readings to keep me busy.  Finding uninterrupted time to study can be a challenge.  As part of a three-way babycare exchange, I also now babysit a little boy one day a week.  It’s fun, and it’s good for Simona to have a slightly older “peer” to imitate.

Simona’s highlights this month include learning to hold her hed up when lying on her stomach, becoming much more vocal, **almost** learning to roll over (we’re practicing!), and being able to grab her feet.  She’s becoming much more interested in toys and can also now reach out and touch objects I hold in front of her.  We also took a trip to the Maryland / Pennsylvania border, and this weekend we will be camping with her!  We’re going on the church retreat, which offers camping or dorms as lodging options, so we have a backup in case it doesn’t go well.  We’ll post more pictures soon- in all that free time that we have!
