Getting Ready to Move -- again

We have been in Kansas for almost 6 months now. It's been hard being apart from Chris and the pups and trying to work full time and take care of Bella in this icky apartment. I will be happy to go home but am also anxious about trying to work at home with Bella when I'm not in Kansas and then leaving her for five days at a time to come back to work in the office. But we'll see how it goes, it will be good bonding time for her and Chris. Hopefully somebody will buy or rent our house quickly so we can move on and all be together.

Bella has recently started talking more. It's very exciting. Tonight she dropped a small cup of water out of the bathtub and yelled "oh no I dropped." I think that is her first real sentence so I was very excited. She says all sorts of things now, dog, car, truck, bird, rock, color, blanket, juice, I got you, thank you. It's very cute and helpful! One night she was having a fit to go out on the front porch late at night and I kept saying that she couldn't, that it was too late and she just kept crying and finally she said "ball." Her ball was on the front porch, she didn't want to go outside after dark, she simply wanted her ball inside. If she hadn't of used the word then I wouldn't have known to go get her ball and she would have kept crying.

She is turning 2 on Sunday! Crazy how time flies. We went to her 2 year check up yesterday and she weighed 24.6 lbs and was 33 inches tall so she has finally gained a little bit of weight. They are changing her reflux medicine again so hopefully she will stop puking so much. If this doesn't work she will have to have some tests run over at the hospital. Otherwise she seems to be perfectly healthy and developing on track.
