Daddy

Summer is officially over here in Brazil, as of yesterday. But it is still 100F, so not sure when the heat will end. Here, much like Florida, there are only two seasons - summer and almost summer. We have not adapted to this heat, unfortunately, we still miss our AC very much.
Isabela is great! This weekend Jason had the idea to buy a little thing to make bubbles, and she absolutely loved. He would blow the bubbles and she was trying to catch them. Fun for hours, she just did not get tired of it. She is getting so smart too. Her new word is : out. When she is done at eating, she says out, she wants out of the chair. When we arrive somewhere she pulls on her seatbelts and says OUT. She continues to say Daddy, and call for Dad; but no mommy, mom or anything similar to that. I'm starting to take this personal :-(. He also knows when is bath time, she yells Baaaa, and starts rubbing on her belly.
Her bedtime routine is what makes me so proud! It took 15 months, but we are finally there! Don't get me wrong, there are the ocasional nights when she wakes up at 2am crying for no reason.. but all in all her routine is set. And is a good one. At 7pm she gets 1 cup of milk, then we watch 15 minutes of cartoons, and read books. At 7:30 pm we brush our teeth, wash our hands and ready for bed. I say good night, daddy says goodnight, I put her in her crib, and say that I love her and we'll play tomorrow again, turn the lights off, and that is it. She goes to sleep without a peep! Amazing... from having to rock her to sleep for 45 minutes to this! I am so happy and proud. It was a slow transition, but it was worth it. She does wake up early, around 5 to 5:30 am she is up and ready for the day. But that is okay with me for now, at least she is sleeping through the night!
I think that is all the news for today. I am going to catch up on some tv shows now, Greys anatomy is killing me with the Izzie story line!
