crawling, and now walking







Mia started crawling in January, and was attempting to walk by mid-February. Life changes fast, I guess! I thought it might take her a while to move around, since she is rather chunky, but she surprised us and was walking at 10 months. It's so cute to see her round little body waddle around the house and Jonah is very excited that they can now chase eachother. We have to remind him that she still is a baby, even though she's moving around more. She's starting to say a few words, "da-da" for daddy, and "hi". She seems to think that the word for telephone is "hi" because that's what she says every time she sees one. It's so cute!

Mia is so gorgeous! I can't believe she was walking at 10 months. That's pretty good. I bet between the 2 (almost 3) of them, they keep you pretty busy.

She is so cute and getting so big! So now you have two little walkers to keep track of! That is so fun, and there is no surprise that she is moving along early like her brother did! Such cute kids! Love Jonah's new bike too, and congrats on the potty training!

Awwww, what a big girl! I bet you're so ready to have that baby! His room is so cute! We got Brady a train table like that for his birthday, and after about a week, we had to take it down because he kept demolishing it, and those things are NOT easy to put back together! The screws are a great idea!!!

She is ADORABLE! She has the prettiest blue eyes, I haven't seen her very often. I was surprised at how big she is in her pictures. I can't believe she is walking!

Mia is so cute, I really need to see her in person. And I recognize the outfit! You are really becoming quite the Martha Stewart. I think you'll have to come down and decorate my kids rooms. I guess you're more like Roni than I am, first the train table and then making all the crib bedding out of a second comforter. Wow. Hey I want to see a picture of you prego.
