Finally!

Sorry for the delay of blog posts. I was taking a blog break.
A major milestone occurred while on a break....Jenna started walking on her own on 5/14/12! She had been taking steps on her own but wouldn't walk by herself. She is still toddling around and will fall occasionally. She would rather walk indoors where she knows she can grab onto something but will walk outdoors as long as we are close by. Here is a video from my cell phone when the first steps were taken:
 She also has been talking a lot lately and says several words or they sound like words: Up, Oh, Whoa, Oskar--"ah-kar" (my parent's dog), Mama, Dada, Tuse (my sister's nickname), Yes, Bird, Diaper--"da-per" and then pats her bottom, Papa, Hi, Woof, GG, Cracker--"ka-ker", Apple, and Yah. This stage has been so fun and I love how she is trying to communicate with us now. She still gets frustrated if I can't figure it out but I'm trying :)
Here is a video from the end of April talking to my mom:
And another video taken a few weeks ago saying "Oskar" (his picture is on the fridge):
She is a full blown toddler now (9 teeth), around 23 lbs, likes to chat with us, "talks" on the phone, snuggle, read books, play with her new kitchen, listen and watch music being played, playing with friends, loves her baby doll, loves wearing sunglasses and eats basically anything we give her! Love her more everyday, such a joy!!
