New Freedom

Natalie started walking pretty much on the day after she turned one. By early April, she was enjoying her new-found freedom, especially outdoors, where crash landings are softened by soil and grass.

Here, it looks like she's chasing the cat with a shovel. She isn't. She'd toddled across the lawn to her dad's gardening area. She picked up the spade and, enthralled, came walking it across the lawn. She did a few digging maneuvers, making it clear she's been watching Aaron in the garden. She was really proud of herself. And the cat just happened to saunter across as I snapped the photo (though he's no dummy, getting away from a spade-wielding baby who takes pride in pulling his tail).

And here, she has climbed up into this chair on her own.
