Lila got some new kicks this week. I'm trying to put her in shoes more often so she will feel more comfortable walking. She can stand on her own, but completely freaks out when you let go of her hands and she just sits down, screaming, like "how could you let go of me like that?". It's pathetic. She crawled at 9 months and from some of the articles that I've read, babies usually crawl for about 3 months before they walk. If that's the case, we're looking at right around her birthday. We'll see. I'm being kinda selfish here, but if she would start walking, it would make football games a lot easier for us. Right now, we either have to hold her and pass her around or sit her on the track and then she crawls and picks up rubber pieces off the track then eating them. I'm not saying that the walking thing will keep her from eating the track, but being off the ground more may help a little. Don't get me wrong; I don't want my baby to grow up any faster than she it, but it's time for her to get brave and walk!
In my last post, I shared that we had gotten a new dog. She is a weim, which is what I have been wanting. I used to have one (he was NUTS), but had to end up giving him away because I moved into an apartment and just didn't have enough room for him. I'm sure he's happier now! The newest addition to our family is Emma. She is very sweet and very active. She and Jasper fight over who gets to fetch more! We have discovered that she may be a bit of a digger, but we're hoping that we can fix that. I tried to snap some pics of sweet Emma, but she was following me around everywhere. This is the best I could get!
