...so you only get words. But we have a confirmed BOY coming your way in April! My due date is April 24th (Easter Sunday), but I don't think they'll let me go longer than April 17th (39 weeks). I have NO boy clothes, and Renee has no boys so she can lend me clothes = Renee must have a boy in 3 weeks to stockpile the clothes I'll need. It's obvious, right?
Also, Layla decided to walk today! Phew. We're just getting all the biggies out in one day. She's taken one or two steps before, usually as she's falling/stumbling into my arms, so it hasn't really seemed like it "counted." However, today (allll day!) she was practicing standing up from a sitting position without holding on to anything, and eventually she just decided to go for it and made out for the bed. I'm just glad I was watching! :) I called Jonas in and we got her to do it several more times...but she started getting so excited and proud of herself that every other time she would fall over from glee. Cute stuff, people! Cute stuff.
For a "talking" update, I think I can say for sure that "all done" might be her first word, with "tickle, tickle, tickle" a close second. She now regularly will do her "tocka tocka tocka" while tickling her own feet, or my hand. We get an "Aaaaah Don" each time we close a book. She says something when saying "bye bye" and waving, but I can't quite make that out yet...I think it's still in baby language.
The End
