Machine Gun Holly

Holiday has been making funny machine gun noises lately. I never could do that, when I played war as a kid I always carried the "shotgun" because I couldn't manage a proper machine gun noise. Holly got another molar last week, the upper left and it feels like the upper right is on its way. So the total tooth count is 11. Holly is also making more of an effort to walk on her own. When she does she gets about 2 steps in and falls flat on her butt. In spite of that, she has realized that doesn't hurt if she falls square on her butt so she keeps trying. She's been walking with her push car from Aunt Keri on her own now without any prodding from us. When we took her to the play area on Friday night at the mall, Holly stood up on her own a lot more. Usually she scootches the entire time. She also followed other kids through the crawl holes so she's interacting more. We did Holly's swim lesson last Saturday, she's really liking the Humpty Dumpty part. That's where all the kids are placed on the edge of the pool and "jump" into the pool...all kids are assisted by their parents of course. Splashing is still a favorite.
