No, Addie is not walking and Freddy can not say his ABCs or even count to 3 with any consistency. (Dern Veggie Tales making me rhyme) Sorry. Nope, this is almost as good though. Adeline can get down our steps into the living room all by herself, almost every time! We have the popular 70s style "sunken" living room. Addie has been able to get up the step since shortly after starting to crawl back in September. Despite all our efforts to show her and help her though, she refused to go down the step by herself. She fell off it once or twice and wasn't willing to risk it for quite awhile. Now the only problem is that I can no longer sequester her to one portion of the house without the use of baby gates. I used to know that she would stay in the back hallway if I put her back there to play in her room, but no more. She can be in the kitchen or playing in the dog bowl in a split second! So, a new era in babyproofing has begun and I am just waiting for the day she'll show an interest in walking or at least standing on her own. Right now I have to go and supervise as they watch Veggie Tales. We just introduced this show yesterday, and I'm kind of already tired of it...oh and Addie is chewing on some random wire she found behind the tv, so I should probably go grab her...oh and there's the poo face too. ;)
