The weather is getting to be so fantastic. Brad, L and I took a long walk on Friday night. It's was so good to get outside. Brad was sick part of last week and so a nice weekend where we got to spend time outside was just what we needed. We spent a lot of time starting to pack (with some travel and our finalization hearing coming up there won't be a lot of time) but we found some time for fun.
Sweet baby L is continuing to grow. She pulled up this week for the first time. She still can't get to sitting by herself, but when she's sitting she can start to get herself up. I think that we are really in for it. Sweet baby L is a girl with places to go and things to do. She's almost crawling, but her main method of getting around is still scooting around on that belly. She can get almost anywhere she wants to by dragging herself around. She is teaching me what I need to babyproof and getting into anything she can!

She was already sitting on her knees, before she got to that position. My goodness she's growing fast!

Whenever I have the camera out, she's after it. So in this photo, she's chewing her ducks and going after me at the same time.
She loves getting over to the toys she wants to play with.


She's still on the lookout for something else.
This morning gave me lots of opportunities for some good shots before L was even out of her pajamas. Most mornings I start with a cold diet coke. Sweet baby L got to mine this morning before I even opened it and followed it as it rolled across the floor until she finally cornered it and it couldn't roll anymore.


There is nothing like a nice cold can on those sore gums.
I think L was as shocked as I was when she realized she could open this drawer today. She LOVES electrical cords (of course!) and she hit the motherload with this drawer.


Like I said... she's teaching us what we need to baby proof.

Okay. I think this is so funny (above). James is our nearly constant companion when we play. Wherever we are, he wants to be too. He does not want to be caught, however. Sweet baby L will scoot over to him and try to grab him, and he'll move two feet away. She will follow, of course, and he'll move two more feet away. They'll just continue this game until he finally gets fed up and goes in the other room.

I love how proud of herself she is when she gets where she is going. TOO CUTE!!!
Just before she went back down for her nap today sweet baby L had a good time patting my knee and just laughing and laughing. It gave me a good chance to get some shots of those teeth.


She's got three now. If you look really closely, you can see the third just breaking through her top gums.
After a good round of patting my knee, it was back to getting into things. This time it was a magazine that caught her eye.


But only until she noticed that I was here and then she wanted the camera!
Our lives are sort of crazy with our housing situation up in the air. I caught Brad's cold yesterday so I'm feeling under the weather and poor L was sounding congested this evening too. I just hope that we all get over this pretty quickly. Mawmaw and Pawpaw will be here tomorrow and after that we've got some travels coming up so we'd like to be in tip top shape!
See you soon!
