This morning mommy took me in the jogging stroller and while I napped, mommy got some exercise.  It was a very crisp and cold morning, but I was toasty warm under lots of blankets and my rain cover.  When we got home mommy spread a blanket out on our front yard and we soaked up some sun.   We didn't stay outside for too long though because my little cheeks were getting cold.  

Later in the afternoon mommy and I took a trip to an area of Seattle called Ballard.  She found a Leap Frog Activity Table on Craig's List that she bought for me and we went to the person's house to pick it up.  It is just the right height for me to stand and play with all of the levers and buttons.  It will help me learn my colors, numbers and letters and I can sing along with the silly songs too.  

I like to stand while I play.  As a matter of fact, just last night after daddy got home from work the three of us were  playing with my toys in the living room.   Well, mommy and daddy were playing with my toys.   I was standing up next to the laundry basket and pulling out all of the clothes that mommy had just folded.   This is my new favorite pastime.  I decided that I wanted to go see mommy and I let go of the laundry basket and took one wobbly step and then another towards her.  I fell right into her arms, but I took my first two solo steps towards walking on my own!  Mommy keeps saying I will be walking on my own before Spring.  That's less than two weeks away.  We'll see if I can make it.  I am awfully close.  Then there will be no stopping me.

Sophie, now that you have had your taste of walking, are you going to start or take a break and just be happy to cruise?
