Walking, talking and helping!




We can´t believe Annalie is more than 15 months old now. She is the best. The moment she wakes up she is one happy active and chatting toddler. She loves to read books, play, dance and laugh. The other night we tried to count how many words she can say and figured she can at least say around 20 words already. 2 days ago she surprised me when being at her playgroup. She all of a sudden started walking. Not just two or three steps but really walking through the room. I couldn´t believe my eyes. She has been walking for some time now but only if she was able to hold on to something. Now she is one happy walker. I love to hear the sound of her feet tip-tapping over the floor. She still walks a little wobbly but gets faster every hour. Walking makes her really happy. Sometimes she just stands in the hall all smiley because she can stand and walk by herself. She is getting quite the little helper lately. She picks up the broom and starts to clean the kitchen. It is amazing to see how fast she learns and picks up things. She wants to do many things all by herself already like feeding herself. After her meals the kitchen usually looks really messy. That´s how they learn I guess :).
