When I got home from work yesterday, Kyle asked me if I would like to see something Payton did that day. I of course said sure! My jaw dropped in amazement when this is what I saw:



Payton has not been able to walk by herself like that before! Usually when she tries to push that thing she pushes too hard with her upper body and then her legs can't keep up, but she all of a sudden was able to balance and walk around like it was no big deal! Makes me wonder if walking could be just around the corner, a little sooner than I thought...

My little baby seems like such a big girl these days. She has been doing a lot of pointing lately; I'm not sure when she figured that one out, it seems like everyday she's doing something new! She points to things she likes, things she is curious about, etc. She has been LOVING this weather, I definitely think we have an outdoor girl on our hands. She will crawl up to the sliding glass door and point outside, especially to this fish pond that Sue has in her backyard. When I came home from work yesterday I found Kyle and Payton outside on a bench staring at the fish in the pond. Kyle has also been taking her on walks when it's nice, and she gets a big grin on her face when you put her up in the backpack carrier. She's imitating us a LOT more too. When my dad asked her if she could say Grandpa she said something that sounded like "grambob" and when Kyle's aunt Pam asked her to say Pam, she said something that sounded just like it! She can also say "uh-oh", which is really, really cute. It seems like she understands more and more everyday!

Hope everyone is enjoying these nice few days of sunshine!
