It's been a while since we've posted on what's going on with us so it's time for an update! Bella is now 9 weeks old and growing fast. She weighs about 10.5 lbs now and is finally out of newborn clothes! She can hold her head up on her own and when on her tummy. She rolled over from her tunny to her back on Monday which really surprised me! She has started smiling and it just melts our hearts when she gives us the biggest grin.
This week I started back to work..very part time! I work Tuesdays and Thursday afternoons and have 4 clients. While I am at work Bella goes to the babysitters house. She is awesome and we are so lucky to have someone so special taking care of Bella. Tuesday was rough when I dropped her off but Thursday was better! It's gotten us into somewhat of an evening routine. Before Bella wasn't going to bed until about 10ish...now she is down by 8:30-9:00pm!
We went on our first official road trip with Bella last weekend down to Anthony's parents house. The ride down was great since we left at night time and it was dark she slept the whole way. She got to meet her great grandparents, see her Madrina (godmother in Spanish) and visit with some of my family as well. Anthony went to the UCF/Miami game. It was tough loss for the Knights but it was still a loss. The ride back to Orlando was another story! We made it as far as Pt. St. Lucie and pulled into the Home Depot parking lot so I could feed her. About an hour later we were back on the road. My car was packed as we took Jupiter along with us. I amazed how well Anthony packed the car and was able to fit everything.

The Ronald McDonald House asked us to be part of tree planting ceremony near the Ronald McDonald House. It was a small ceremony, but channel 6 news was there and we were on TV. Anthony spoke during the segment. We have it DVR'd just don't know how to put it online for everyone to see.
We are ready for Fall. UCF football is underway, although not doing the best..but that's okay we are not fairweather fans! Halloween is quickly approaching and we are keeping her costume a secret until the big day! I decided to make a pumpkin muffin recipe today that my friend Amy shared with me and the whole house smells delicious. Now that is getting cooler and we have nice breezes out, Bella loves to go in the backyard and enjoy the fresh air. Anytime she gets fussy, just bring her outside and she's a happy camper.
Enjoy the pictures that Bella's babysitter took for us this week! The little girl in the picture is 3 year old Payton is head over heels in love with "Baby Bella" as she calls her!
