Step by step

Hazel is starting to walk. Today she took three steps without holding onto anything, and she is now pulling herself up and standing unsupported for minutes at a time. I just can’t believe our little girl is walking! She holds our hands and moves forward- albeit kind of awkwardly, but she is so enthusiastic about walking. Little by little she is growing more independent and day by day she gets more and more like a little kid and less and less like our little baby. This is all going so quickly!

In other exciting news, this weekend while we were reading stories to Hazel we pointed out a kitty in one of her books (Goodnight Moon). She got so excited and started to pet the page. I thought it might just be a fluke and kept reading until we came to another page with kitties on it- I asked Hazel if she saw the kitty and again she got super excited and pointed to the kitties on that page. She is starting to understand what things are and you can just see the little wheels in her head turning. All of this is so amazing to watch- and it’s incredible how quickly things change.
