Well our baby is a year old and it seems like as soon as her birthday got here she really did grow up so much more! She got her own little chair for her birthday from my parents and she already figured out how to climp up in it and stand up holding on to the back. She gets so excited over her accomplishment and just grins so big and waves to us. It's so cute! Except she thinks she can just dive off of the chair head first!
She LOVES bathtime so we got her a couple new bath toys for her birthday too. One of them is a bath-ketball toy that suction cups to the side of the tub and it has 3 squirty basketballs that she can dunk into the little net. She loves balls so that was our appeal to the toy and sure enough she loves it and she figured out how to dunk it in no time!
Most exciting thing is that in the past week she's really started letting go of things when she is standing up and puposefully standing on her own! Then tonight we got out her little walker to see if she'd try it - before she would stand with it but the second it moved she'd plop down to the ground - and she just took off walking with it like it was nothing! I got a little video of it but I ended up grabbing the other video camera to record more when she was just going from one end of the living room to the other - over and over and over - so this is all I got that I could post on the blog:
She'll be walking anytime now I'm sure! It's just crazy because a week ago she showed no interest at all in even standing on her own, never-the-less walking! I'll post more video as we get it! Go Mckayla Go!

Isn't it amazing how fast they learn? I can't believe she's almost walking! So fun!
Yay Mckayla!!! Emily started doing that the day before her first birthday, walking with the walker. It still took her about a month until she would attempt to walk by herself. Then it happened over night and she was walking by herself everywhere she would go.
ha thanks!! Yeah you're right, maybe next year it will be more fun since she'll be a little older! She is so cute Jes, I can't wait to see you all!!
