Julia has been tentatively walking for a couple of weeks now, and I finally managed to get a little video of her taking some steps. You’ll have to ignore the toys on the floor, the laundry on the coffee table, and the Dawson’s Creek on the television. Side note – it’s intensely weird, watching something I LOVED and people I thought were HOT when I was 15. They really only think about sex in the craziest of ways.
Anyway! Baby steps!!
Well, not English, exactly, but Julia has been very talkative lately. She’s such a social child, very engaged given her young age. I don’t remember Hazel being so chatty – but I was also quite a bit more sleep deprived when Hazel was two months old! This is a sweet video I took of her on Friday, when Amos was away on a trip to Kansas City. Julia and I were having a nice conversation, and through the magic of video we could share it with him (and you!).
Jim is Hazel's grandpa, and he is obsessed with pasta. :)
This week, while Hazel's babysitter is (STILL) on vacation, I have been trying to get a big head start on packing, since I cannot do school work while she's awake. The house is a wreck, I am crazy stressed out, and Hazel keeps finding the scissors or tape dispenser with its sharp metal teeth. Then she does something like this:
Hazel has been saying (or attempting) a TON of new words, including the following:
Hazel said her first word yesterday: bye-bye!
