Look What I can Do!


Step 1


Step 2


Step 3


And here I am!

Wow, what a weekend we have had. On Friday, Presleigh was barely crawling on all fours(She has been army crawling for awhile). However, over the weekend she has figured out she can get into more trouble on all fours and has been trying hard to coordinate her arms and her legs.

And today she is pulling up! She crawled into the bathroom where Big Sister Blaire was taking a bath and pulled up next to her dad who was washing Blaire's hair and insisted that she take a bath too! The funny thing is, Stuart tells me this story very nonchelantly later. I told him he had just witnessed Presleigh pull up for the first time. So funny!

This evening we got out a new picnic table we got for Presleigh and Blaire and Stuart and I got so excited as Presleigh demonstrated her new skills. Blaire got excited too and had to show us how she could pull up too! How funny!

Presleigh 11 months!


Miss Presleigh will be 11 months old on the 24th. Wow, has the past 11 months flown. I can hardly believe that 11 months ago I was waddling around greatly anticipating the birth of our second born.

Miss Presleigh is making big strides. While she is taking her time with her major motor skills, she has "tons" of words. A few being: Mama, Dada, Blaire("bu") more("ma"), doggy("da"). She is a pretty relaxed baby, but when she wants something, she knows how to assert herself.

In the past month Presleigh has been able to move herself from an army crawl to a sitting position and this past week she has started crawling a little on all fours. She is better at army crawling and still prefers that. Yesterday Presleigh pulled up on her own. Although, she was here with her Grandma and no one actually witnessed it. Grandma just found her standing!

Blaire and Presleigh are learning more and more ways to play with each other which is fun to watch. They are both quite fond of each other!
