Around the House


Anna's official one year portrait.


Checking out her new shoes.


More walking please!


Climbing the stairs.

I bought Anna a new pair of shoes last week, we're still test-driving them inside, but I bought them for outside use. Her Robeez are getting really dirty (but we like to use them inside) so I thought I'd like a pair for outside-only. These Preschoolians have a rubber bottom (but are still super flexible so they're supposed to be as good as bare feet) that will provide a bit more protection from the rough stuff outside (and keep her Robeez clean for indoor-use). Her feet are almost getting too big for her Robeez, too, so we were definitely in the market for something new.

Anna is still really into "walking" everywhere and it's not often that she gets tired out before my back hurts too much. I've discovered that if I let her hold onto something in one hand she will walk holding onto just one of my hands and this is a lot more work for her (balancing, etc.) and this wears her out a bit more--and she's (hopefully) gaining more confidence to walk on her own some day.

She also really likes to climb the stairs (she likes to go up and down now) and I think we are getting to the point where I need to get a gate for the bottom so that I can cook dinner without worrying about her going around the corner and up the stairs on her own.
