Frankenstein Arms

I am trying to be a good mom and to spend time with Cruz, capture growing moments with Cruz, and to love Cruz. He is so lovable that is easy, but sometimes I feel guilty because my thoughts are constantly on my dad and mom when I am not with them. I know life continues on and Cruz continues to grow, so I am doing my best to be a good mommy to Cruz and capture every moment I can, because I know they are precious and will pass soon.



This week Cruz has really gotten the hang of the walking thing. He does these funny "Frankenstein Arms" when he walks though. It is so funny to me. He walks all over the house with his hands out. The picture doesn't even do it justice. I know in a few days he will feel more comfortable and not need to do that. Today we went to the public pool for a little bit. We had a lot of fun. Cruz really likes the water. I was so happy to take him. I have been looking so forward to be able to take my own children to the pool. For many years while I was single I would go with my sister in laws and their children to the pool, and I was green with envy. I am so happy we have little Cruz to play with, he was well worth the wait.
