New this week!

So this week has been a week of new things for Natalie. First of all her vocabulary is growing each and every day! It's kinda fun to see what words are going to pop out of her at any minute. Our current favorites are "Two" and "Door". She also can now count to 10 with us supplying the odd numbers and her saying the even ones. (We have this on video and will try to upload it soon.) And today she figured out she could walk backwards. She had this total look of wonder and amazement when she did it the first time!

Unfortunately, other new things this week include climbing onto the coffee table and standing up as well as using the shelves of her changing table as a ladder, climbing to the top and standing with her hands above her head!!! (we've since made it so she can't be in her room alone!)

Anyways, I will try to get the video up soon and try to keep you up-to-date on all the new things happening here. Paul has his orientation this week and faculty meetings. Classes start on the 19th so we'll have a busy 2 weeks but then we should get back into a good rhythm!
