Sierra has been learning how to pull herself up (mostly to her knees but occasionaly to a stand) by grabbing onto the couch, laundry baskets, stools, and anything else she can get her hands on. She is increasingly less interested in "toys" and more interested in that which we don't want her to play with. Her banter remains a prominent "dah dah dah," but variations do pop up here and there. It is probably just coincidental, but Gus and Sierra grow ever closer as the days pass. He just loves spending time with her and showing her as much of the world as he can. He giggles at her mannerisms all the time now.
We dropped Pop Pop Mickey off at the airport early in the week. What a wonderful trip it was! Daycare has been going along smoothly, although I still hate being away from her... that will never change. It has made our week less eventful here; along with the fact that both Gus and I are trying to switch over to our new schedules (back to full time for me). I sent him this video of Sierra before I went to work one day this week.
On Saturday I presented at the NSCA regional conference... which I was slightly nervous about, but went well. Today, AUNTIE LYN came over! It's great having family within a stone's throw. Unfortunately while we were out picking up straw for the chickens today, my favorite chicken was killed by a juvenile Red Tail Hawk. Ironic. I guess we had always thought they were sitting .... ducks for all of the hawks in the area.
Little Sierra brings tears of joys to my eyes every week! Love you all. Grammy
