10 Months.

This post is a week late. Justine is growing Rapidly. It is sad and very exciting. She absolutley Loves Her Grandma's and Grandpa's. Mostly beecause they share lots of yummy snacks with her. She still doesn't say "Mommy" or anything close to it at all anymore. She stands on her own and loves to do it in the tub and plop down on her bum and watches water splash everywhere! (no she isn't demonstrating for the picture) She now has 7 Teeth. My goal was to Nurse her for a full year. I am still Nursing, but also trying to wein her. Last week she pulled up my shirt and said "ninnie." At that Moment I decided she was going to be done soon. So far it isn't working. She will not drink out of a sippy cup, just chews on it, and only sucks out of a bottle for maybe 2 minutes. And she mostly spits the milk out. So if anyone has suggestions on how to help me I'd GREATLY appreciate them. I'd hate to have a "ninnie" incident in PUBLIC. Even though my baby is growing, she still loves to cuddle with me, and cries when I leave her. I love the feeling of being wanted and needed.


On another note...My Reba. Yes my red Honda Civics name is Reba. Well she died, and I am heartbroken. Sunday night we were going down a back road in Fallon and crappy one at that, hit a pot hole then rough railroad tracks. Blew both back tires, ruined both rims, and busted both shocks. David declared her dead, says she's got to much problems to fix, because something else will break down next. So with the remainder of our Tax Returns we bought a 1998 Ford Explorer. So this is a picture of our new Explorer. It is in Fantatsic Condition, and we got an Amazing deal on it.
Thumbs up for a four door vehicle, Thumbs down for a FORD. I like Chevy. Sorry. But don't get me wrong, I am so grateful we could afford this and got it so fast.

Such a Sweet Baby

I could just kiss her for days. I melt when she smiles and giggles.
My eyes water when she...HEAD BUTTS me.
Her new thing.
Just a few minutes ago she nailed Grandma...TWICE,
and I got the wrath afterwards.
