Well here we are- our newborn baby is almost 11 months old. She waved bye-bye to her daddy last night on her way to bed and she took 4 steps between us today.
I always hear my friends talk about how sad it is and how they wish these babies would stay newborn forever- I have to say I disagree. I find sheer enjoyment in watching her little brain grow and to see that look of "I get it!" in her eyes.
She sings this "da dah, da dah, da dah" song, and she knows exactly how it goes because I'll sing it to her and she'll say it back! Early forms of communication- incredibly exciting!
Ella and I are going to learn to swim. I signed us up for swim classes- we'll be attending every Saturday for the next 4 weeks. Ryan will be standing in for me while I'm at the Modbe Fashion launch next week. It took some serious negotiations to get a commitment from him. Can't blame him... he'll be the only dad at the water park with his baby girl!
