Step by Step

Irelynn has started taking some steps! I wouldn't say she is walking, but when we hold something that she likes in front of her, she will take 2 or 3 steps towards it. It is a really cute wobbly step and her eyes are filled with full concentration each time. Her early birthday present was a bike trailer, which has been a lot more fun than I ever thought. I wasn't sure how she would like it, but it has been a big hit with her. The first couple of rides, we put her car seat in the trailer and pulled her around that way. The trailer is great. The big wheels make it really easy to pull (well, that's what Travis says... I haven't attempted to pull it yet.) Irelynn has been saying a few words. Dog comes out like "Gowg." That is her new favorite word. She will also say Duck. She will point to the monkey in her room when I ask her where it is in Spanish.

Irelynn's first birthday is coming up in a couple of weeks. We are going to try to make a piano cake, since she loves the keyboard that her Nannie gave her. Pictures to come.
