Walka-walka-talka-talka!

Can you believe that this is what I looked like a year ago?




Hey! I have officially made the transition, just in these last two days! I now walk almost everywhere instead of crawling. The only time I crawl is when I tip over. But even when I do tip over, I can get up without holding on to anything. I can walk all over the appartment for several minutes without tipping over, and am even getting pretty good at running in really quick tiny little steps! My Momma and Dad think that I look like a little penguin when I do that, but they don't know what they are talking about. Mostly, I just look like ME. I am so incredibly pleased with myself when I walk that I make lots and LOTS of noise while I do it.
I also added a few more words these last few days: 'buh' (book), 'baw' (ball), 'poo' (need I explain?), and 'daw' (dog)! Oh yeah, and 'Nein!' (no, in German, accompanied by shaking my head) I picked that one up at the playground.
I have my 12-month check-up at the doctors' office on Friday, I'll be able to give you some exciting vital stats after that. And oh, yeah! My Dad is being promoted to a Captain on Friday, too! Is that cool or what?

My Dad was very sneaky and took a picture of me and my Momma taking a nap!
Hey! What is that kitty doing?!
For sitting on? Naaaah, it's for climbing!
And look! If I pull out the drawers on this dresser, I can climb it like steps!

Hey babe,
Looks like lots of fun.
Be sure to keep your Momma busy, OK?

Thank you for the tablecloth, it was on the stairs when I got home from vacation. It looks like someone walked on it though. He he

I see Mark wears his pants in the baggy style with a nice strip of diper showing. :D H.
