So while some things marched into reverse, other things continued moving forward, like...I got a babysitter!!!!!!! Her name is Florencia, she is 17, she is fantastic. The first day she began, Juan fell asleep in her arms within 10 minutes of their meeting, and that is when I knew it was love from the get go so I hired her on the spot and now, not only do I have time to think and breathe and bathe, but my house is spic and span, dinner is done each night, Juan is happy all day, and so is his mommy!
There is oh so much to tell you all... like, Juani has started adding some "mamamamas into his blah blah blahs" He smiles all the time causing each and every "street awer" (the people that stop and try to touch my child's face saying "awe so cute" while I secretly fantasize about cutting their finger off and screaming "who the hell are you and what in god's name possessed you to touch a child you do not know!") to stop in their tracks and attempt to touch Juani's face saying, "awe, he is so cute! look at how he smiles" "Yes I know, he is effing cute, now get your grimy hands away from him you freak!" Or at least that is something of the dialogue that goes on in my head while strain to continue smiling.
He is weighing in at nearly 19 pounds these days! So I am in dire need of my mommy's magic healing hands. He is nearly sitting on his own...toppling over from time to time. He tries his darndest to crawl but goes backwards instead of forwards, followed by shrieking cries of frustration.
In about two weeks we will begin introducing food, though we have already allowed him to taste a few things...lemon, beef, apple, banana...nothing solid, just flavors. (the lemon is the best!)
Here are some of the latest photos...
