Moving right along...

A month or so ago, we bought a Playschool Sit 'n' Stand toy for Grace, mainly as a tool to help her learn how to walk, but also as a fun car toy for her later. So far though, she's mainly just been interested in playing with the toys on it (namely the stick shift) or sitting on it and having us push her around, rather than walking with it; but on Monday, I pulled it out and (to my surprise) she started walking with it all by herself! Excited, I reached for my camera (which was first out of memory space and then out of batteries, so I missed getting a video of her really moving, but finally) I managed to get this short but sweet video of her.

Pretty fun, huh? She's also been a crawling machine lately--crawling more instead of scooching around the house. And she's been really in to pulling herself up from all fours to standing too--on the stairs, couch, etc. It's so fun to see her be more active and better at getting herself where she wants to go. We love you Grace!

Give that little crawling machine a big hug and a kiss for us, that is you can catch up with her and keep her still long enough to. :) We are so excited to see you guys in August. She'll be walking all over the place by then.

I can't believe how big she's getting--she'll be walking in no time! What a cutie!
