Cruising right along

Taylor is cruising now, walking along the furniture while still holding on. There was even a moment this weekend when she let go with both hands to rub her eyes and then put her hands back on the coffee table again. This girl is going to be standing on her own a lot more, I think, and probably walking within the next few weeks. Wow, babies develop quickly!

The weekend in Evansville was fun. Chris and Emily are married now and we even stayed an extra day to hang out with Mark's relatives. Very relaxing. I read the Kite Runner (an intense book!) while Mark's aunts fought over who would hold Taylor next. She's definitely a charmer and she seemed to take really easily to Mark's family.

Some other cute things from this weekend:

  • Taylor started crawling up the stairs on her own
  • She started lifting up her legs to the side while dancing in a standing position
  • She likes playing call/echo games with "ah" sounds and little giggles
  • She slept in Mark's arms for nearly half of the wedding reception (2.5 hrs!)
