Someone has been walking for almost a month!

But she was pretty shaky and unpredictable at first. And what a difference a week makes. The clip above was shot on December 30th; the one below was on January 5th.

p.s. I couldn't help but notice that my standard response to her tipping over is apparently a Homer-Simpson-sounding, "Oh!"

A Merry Christmas, Indeed!

Well, I've had these photos uploaded and ready to go for about a week now but have been too busy with my sabbatical project and another proposal to put any acceptable prose in the post. So, here are my sweethearts, who made our Christmas utterly and perfectly complete! Thank you, God, for all of your gifts!

Before the Christmas Eve service.



Christmas morning.


Thank goodness for this soft lamb; gift-opening is exhausting!
