Mommy brain
Yep, I totally forgot to update this yesterday. I blame being a mom and having too many other things running through my head for my forgetfulness. But it’s good because now I get to add today’s big news: Parker took her first steps tonight! She’s been pushing her little lion toy all over the place and it’s helping her get steady on her legs. She was finally steady enough tonight to stand on her own. Then Jared sat a little ways away from her and she walked to him! We kept having her walk back and forth between us. She did great! Not perfectly stable but at one point she started walking to Jared, stopped, then started again. So she has control! Unfortunately she chose not to do it once we had the camera on. We tried to get videos, but she was pretty much done walking by the time we got the camera out.
Anyway, it was another good week. We had a playgroup earlier in the week. Parker and Jackson, of course, ended up off in the corner together. Best little buddies. Later in the week Parker and I went to Jackson’s house and the 2 of them played house together. On Saturday we went to Jackson’s first birthday party! I can’t believe how fast the babies are growing up. I think Parker is the next to turn 1 of all her little friends. We stayed late at the party and Parker got to help Jackson open some presents.
The videos are pretty self-explanatory (make sure to click on the link that says “Read the rest of this entry” after the first video so you can see all of them):
