Sitting Up

Sophia has officially figured out how to "Sit Up". What she does is..... turns on to her belly, then pushes her self into the sitting position. At first I thought.... Wow, this is so neat and cute but now the reality has set in that maybe the more independent she gets with her body, the more independent she gets with her mind.

She is so independent at this moment that I can't get her to take a nap, go down for bed time, or go back to bed after a middle of the the night nightmare. All she wants to do is turn on her belly and go back to the seating position. Of course, she has not figured out how to lay back down yet.....

Now an update on Jerry... He is feeling much better and off all medicines. He is in Country, as they arrived yesterday. He has explained that he is in the middle of no where. The temperature is in the 100's during the day, but once the sun goes down it is significantly cooler. I could not quite understand his living conditions. He told me he had a roommate, but then there was something that separated the beds, maybe furniture set up to create a wall??? All of their basic necessities are available at the PX. He sounds very settled and tickled with himself as he has hooked up a Columbus phone # that calls directly into his computer. He also has a phone card that he can call home for 2 Cents a minute. They are 7 hours ahead. Shoot me an e-mail if you would like the phone # or address.
