Toddlerhood

I am so happy and so very torn that our little Minnow is now walking. He still crawls but he is walking more and more. It is so cute to see the look of concentration on his face as he lets go of what he is holding on to and walks. He is pretty good about not falling--if he falters he either holds still or sits down. The cutest part--he claps for himself after each bout of walking. Yesterday he practice walking in a circle for about 30 minutes. He screeches in pure delight and walks with his fists clenched and held up. He is growing and changing so fast. His favorite word--well his only word is "yeah" and he says it whenever he is asked a question and when he is told "no". Oh the struggles that will sure ensue.

This is a beautiful time and I am trying to soak it all up. Minnow is amazing and he brightens the world that I live in. What are your kids up to???

Right now Ivy is jumping off of a chair wearing her butterfly dress with wings. Bec is pushing himself off of the couch head first. He is a daredevil.

Mostly, I'm happy that they are both in good moods lately. For awhile there they were taking turns at being grumpy. Thankfully I'm getting a respite from that for a bit.

Congrats on the new bi-ped.

Go Minnow!!!!!!!!

Grace just had her 18 month well-baby check-up yesterday. She is running, climbing, talking (a lot, but not always comprehendable), singing, playing patty-cake, etc. This is a very fun age. 8^)

Oh. I almost forgot to mention, she is also finished with her 9 months of INH for latent TB. Yippee!!
