She took some steps on her own. She took about 2 steps away from me before she reached the coffee table. I don't think she would have made it much further (she was starting to fall after the second rickety step), but it is still pretty cool. I think walking around will take some time, but I guess this is the start. It was pretty special because both Mr. T. and I witnessed our little girl start cruising into toddlerhood.
She also started communicating a bit with us this weekend. Friday night she said Night Night and clawed at my shirt to nurse. I nursed her and put her to bed. We didn't think much of it because I always nurse her before I put her to bed. Then Saturday morning she didn't get her morning nap until late because we were at the gym. When she was in her car seat she was telling us night night. It was cute, and we wondered if it was because she was tired. For her afternoon nap, she grabbed ducky and lay on the floor (something she never does) and said "Night Night". I got the hint and put her to bed. It took her a while to go to bed, but I think it was because she did her "business" in her pants, which makes sleeping hard. (or so I hear).
Peanut now says night night, mom, dada, daisy, bye bye, and maybe my given name regularly. She is such a clever girl.
Today is Jennifer's birthday. Peanut, Quinn, and I are going to go out to eat for lunch to celebrate it.
I think it is going to be a good day.

Yay Peanut! It is so cool to watch them hit these milestones. We got four steps in a row today and I swear, I almost wept. Way to go on the talking too! Very impressive :)
First they walk, then ride a bike, then a car. You may as well plan for your retirement :-)
ha. i already am.
