...Bob (her freshly purchased garage sale rocking horse whose ears produce whiney and gallop sounds, and don't ask how he got this name, she just started calling him this when he came home last weekend! ha!)
OH the sweet joys her voice rings in our ears.

A walker and a baby blade...

Yeah, that's what I'm callin' this little pearly white tooth that popped thru 2 days ago...ten months old and her first little razor blade came thru!!! I was beginning to wonder if she was going to become the toothless wonder. Haven't gotten the lens in for a pic yet b/c she's not too interested in saying "ahhh" yet.
And in other news...last week she started doing her 1st baby walk-abouts with her little activity walker!!!! Will was so stoked when he just stood her behind it and she just started pushing and WALKING, that he scooped her up and hollered for me to go get the video cam so we could catch the first few steps on tape. As usual, I think she wondered why in the world we were making such a big screaming deal about something so simple as walking, haha! She doesn't even know the half of our joy, delight and pleasure in her. Videos to come later!
