The Latest Reyes Report - Gisela Elena

My,mine, ours, yours, me, us, we....what the heck are people taking about? I was drawing a picture and asked mom to trace my hand. She responded with "You trace MY hand"....that's what I said lady, "Trace my hand".....so she says again...."Gisela, you trace MY hand". Uh? Are we still doing this? That's what I just said, "Trace MY hand". Sheez. Never mind. I'll go ask daddy to draw me a picture. "Draw me daddy?" He grabs the paper and begins to sketch. WHAT IS HE DOING? Why do I look so weird and why do I have a goatee? He's making a self portait. SERIOUSLY? I say again, "Draw ME daddy. What does a girl have to do to get heard around here?

 

On top of it all, they decided to drop a bomb on me and tell me that he's not just MY DADDY. But he's also Gavin's daddy, mommy's husband, and grandma's son? WHO IS THIS GUY?

I am ready to be a big girl. I have a birthday coming up so I gotta be ready!

Gotta get to walking
Gotta get off the bottle
Gotta get my all my teeth (this really hurts)
Gotta keep up with Gavin

and I gotta learn to blow out the candles

Happy Birthday to me!!!!

I did it! I rolled over. Then I sat up. Now I'm working on the crawl (its a lot more difficult than it looks so be patient). I'll be 8 months old soon. Mama pierced my ears and said it would only hurt a little bit....she lied! When we got to the store she sat me down and closed her eyes (the traitor). I gotta admit though, it was all over very fast and it was worth it. Beauty is pain. Am I right girls?

School is fun. They have lots of things to play with and everyone keeps telling me how cute I am. Nothing better than that! I would enjoy it more if I wasn't always sick. It seems like I've been a snotty slobber mess for months now. Dad says its my allergies and mom is worried about my ear infections. Just keep me in prayer.

"Life is no fun when you got the crud"- Gisela E. Reyes

Also, my brother and I am forming a band. He is so talented and I am learning all I can from him. Right now he plays drums and I eat the sticks. He rocks out on the guitar and I eat the tambourine. He sings and I look on in amazement. OK...so I have a lot to learn but we're going to be brilliant. You wait. We're practicing later this evening so I better go. Ta Ta for now. Save the Tee Tee for later ;-)

Dad had to go back to work so I began praying for God to bring me the right sitter. I really want to go to school with my brother but there isn't any room in the nursery. I'm hoping for a chance in January but for now, I needed a sitter. Praise God for Priscilla! She goes to my church and agreed to watch me for a few weeks before Christmas. Then I get my parents back for Christmas break! Yipee! Nobody can swaddle me like daddy and no one can love me like mommy. The first day I went to Priscillas, dad and I left in the morning but Gavin got scared I wasn't coming back. Mommy had to explain where I was going and why. He is such a good big brother. He always greets me with a hug and kiss in the afternoon. Someday- I'll do the same for him. Until then, I'll just try to not spit up on him :-)

Love- Gi Gi

Mommy is jealous because daddy gets to stay home with me now. She says that now that I'm getting older, all the fun stuff is about to start. Its true! I discovered smiling! So I smile at daddy at least three times a day. He thinks its because he's funny...just let him think it;-) Also, I am more alert and like to follow daddy with my eyes (he's so handsome). And of course, I'm growing into more of my outfits. I have so many bows, shoes, sweaters, outfits, and dresses to wear. How exciting. Let's get them off the hanger! I'm ready!

Gotta go...I feel wet :-(

Love baby Gisela

 I'm sleeping all day and I'm up all night. Since mom is nursing me, that's not working to well for her sleep schedule. Hopefully we can work this schedule out soon. Dad is threatening to make me do "Stroller Fit" in order to keep me awake longer ( I'll be asleep in the stroller anyway....poor schmuck ;-)
