The Amelia and Daphne Blog

Our weekend

Amelia and I made hand puppets yesterday. Mine was named Clementine and her’s was Apple-Apple. Lucky Apple-Apple got to eat a Sweet Tart.

Daphne doesn’t hesitate to walk anywhere anymore. Most of the time if she chooses to walk along the walls, she realizes it’s a lot easier if she lets go.

Daphne walked up and down the upstairs hallway probably a dozen times tonight. For your viewing pleasure:

The second has Amelia helping her. Amelia has been a big part of Daphne learning to walk and you can hear how Daphne enjoys it.

She got her first walking BONK! on Thursday. She fell against the window sill and got a nice lump on the bridge of her nose. Her teacher wasn’t there when Daphne arrived at daycare on Friday. She couldn’t quite put her finger on what was different about Daphne so the bonk wasn’t that bad I guess. I thought she looked like a Klingon. Today she has yellowish bruise clearing from the sides of the bridge of her nose.
Tonight she marched and lift her knees really high. She also learned Ring Around the Rosie today. Of course, she loves the fall down part.

    Such great news! I would have loved to see her walk to all the kids at daycare and get her hug from each.

    I love the pleased and intense expression on Daphne’s face as she practices her new skill – Great days!
