Over my Thanksgiving break, I tried to spend quality time with SJ doing something memorable each day. We mostly went to the park and explored various parts of the baby playground. She loved the baby swings, but she mostly loved watching other little kids swing and squeal and swing and squeal some more.
She also loved the section devoted to gradual steps to a baby slide, including a arched bridge and a suspension bridge made from tire rubber. It was bouncy, and she got a kick out of holding her monkey blanket and bounding on her knees in the middle of a whole bridge all to herself. On Friday, I took my own pictures. On Saturday, I got Mom and Dad to stop by, and Dad took GREAT pictures. On Sunday, Jeremy and I took her together, and I just left the camera in the car.
Here are some of the best shots.
As you can tell, I might have a little bit of a bias when it comes to discerning “best of Selah June.” 🙂 You can never have too many pictures, right? Tell that to my poor Mac.
So that was the weekend. Then, on Monday, we were back to work. I’m still fighting this dumb cold. It’s taken up residence in my chest, giving me horrible coughing fits at night. Ashley is busy with final projects for school this week, so SJ has been spending a good deal of time with Grammy. Yesterday, I received a video from Mom.
There is was. At the Medicare office, Miss SJ decided to full on start taking steps. That little cheeky booger.
To be fair, she kind of did take a few steps the night before when neither of us were really paying much attention. But with all eyes on her, she decided to spice up the health care mumbo jumbo talk with a little baby walkin’ action.
It’s like she’s trying to turn into a toddler or something…. (sigh)
