Walking and Chalking

I came home today to discover that Genevieve could walk wherever she wanted at a pretty good clip. Yesterday, she was still staggering short distances and then either grabbing ahold of something or falling down. Just in the two hours between getting home and seeing her off to bed, she must have walked six or eight feet at least a half-dozen times. As fun as it is for me to watch her toddle around, though, it's awful hard to figure out how she feels about it. She keeps all her feelings hidden away inside, you know?

And as if that weren't enough accomplishment for one day, Viver also decided that today, she'd start actually using the sidewalk chalk, and stop trying to eat it. So both girls spent some time out back, drawin'.

(I drew the rainbow, but really, the unicorn (not pictured) is a far better example of my skills.)

Forecast: Significant blowing and drifting, with the possibility of heavy accumulation in rural areas.
