From 4s (arms and legs) to 10s (fingers and toes) to 2s (feet)

I suppose a post is long over due. Here's some photos (1 not yet on Facebook) and not one but 2 video clips to make up for it!!

Like a fellow mommy says it, it’s near impossible to document the growth of our child. They grow soooo fast and the pages to the days/months speed along with it. Thus, we’ll reserve to short stories, favorite pixs and video pixs as it becomes available :o) Hmmm…sounds like I’ve typed that before…

Pix with new outfit Mommy happened to dig up from dresser.

Katie enjoying the slide at the park which she's been able to go to on a regular basis with both of our families.

Hanging out with Da Da.

In the past couple of weeks, Katie has swiftly found her walking ability starting with the stance then lifting of one foot over the next. She’s enjoying every bit of her new learned mobility dancing from one piece of furniture to the next. Her next step is to stand up on her own with no assistance. I have a feeling that’s going to set off a whole new world for the little munchkin as if she doesn’t have a solar system to herself already :o/

Katie has also developed amazing social skills…hmm…suppose we have something to do with that. We’ve been fortunate to have cousin Tyrus back in town and taking full advantage of him. Tyrus and Katie can go on a tear of the houses (which happens to be the same make, model and layout and arguably color). They follow one another around the house on all 4’s and 10’s (fingers and toes); they’ll share toys and snacks; and exchange conversations constantly. It’s the cutest thing - lots of fun to watch and film for future entertainment :o) Her time with cousin Tyrus has enhanced her courage to play with other kids in public and at parties.

She’s not shy about crawling around other people’s homes and play with their toys. At times, she has so much fun doing it, she doesn’t realize her parents are gone. We love it!
