Calyn's first steps

Calyn is walking! She started at 8 1/2 months! This picture was taken on February 24th. She had been walking for about 4 days before this was taken. She beat out her brother by a few weeks, he started walking just at 9 months.

She is so little and looks funny walking. People will comment on how amazing it is that she is so small and walking .

Now, she is all over the place, constantly on the go. She is in to everything, every room. We put a gate going into Hayden's room, as that would be the most dangerous room with all the small lego parts. We are considering putting another gate from the kitchen into the living room area.

She loves to go into the bathroom and play at the toilet. Yuck. And she thinks it is hysterical to pull the toilet paper off the roll.

Another favorite thing? Pulling the foam padding off the fireplace. You can see it in the photo, just behind her. I think we have over reacted when she has done it in the past and now when she pulls it off, she squeals with delight and looks over to us and smiles! She sure keeps us on our toes!

Cheers,
Elyse

Hey you! Wow! Look at Calyn go! Aubrey just started walking this weekend! (She took her time at 19 months) She looks great!

Did you hear the news? We're expecting again in November. Crazy, huh?

Andy signed up for something that seems to be sending spam to all of his address book... I wouldn't open it. =)

Thanks for the well wishes.
