Without a doubt, I have been busier in the last two months than ever before. My business has been crazier than ever in the last 4-6 months because of the changing nature of the industry. My summers are always packed with soccer and various other outdoor activities.
Add to all this, my beautiful daughter getting more and more mobile every day, and Beck and I haven't had time to take a deep breath.
Charlie is quickly blossoming into this incredibly happy and hillarious little girl. It's hard for us to remember almost 10 months ago now, when she was just a little infant coming home with brand new parents who were scared out of their minds. She is such a little girl now.
She pulls up on everything and stands now literally using as few as 1 or 2 fingers to hold on while standing. She can now work her way across a room using stools, walls, ottomans, and even her high chair to get just enough support to get where she wants to go.
We have gates up all over the house now. It's fun to watch Charlie explore on her own. She will crawl out of the room, but not too far that she forgets where we are in case she gets a little scared. Then she'll come crawling back as fast as she can!
Everyone we see keeps saying she's just weeks away from walking on her own... I think it may be a few more months, but I could be wrong. The other day, I had her on the soccer field with me and she stood up behind her stroller and pushed it ALL THE WAY across the width of the field. That's almost 70 yards. Then I turned the stroller around and she pushed it all the way back!!
I wish I had my video camera that day. It was so exciting to watch her work so hard!! The kids on my team were all amazed at how determined and strong she was. So fun.
