Almost Walking

Our sweet Caitlyn is just 2.5 days away from her 1st birthday, which she shares with Thanksgiving this year. She's getting close to walking, but we're not there yet. She LOVES to walk around holding both of my fingers. If I let go with one, she stops walking & searches through the air for that other hand. If someone gets in front of her so she can try to walk to them, she loudly protests & then stops walking. It's like she KNOWS that we're trying to get her to do it on her own and she's just NOT having it. She will stand on her own for a few seconds, if she lets go of the table or something, so we're making progress. She definitely has a mind of her own, but we love her! Her new thing is to jibber-jabber all day long. She tries to tell us things as she points to objects or if we're having a conversation around her. It makes Bill laugh out loud because she thinks she's really talking. (Again, I need to try the video thing.)

(Of course if we're taking a picture of Caitlyn, then we need to take a picture of Madisen.
Can you tell that she practically lives in her dress up clothes- she's 100% girl!)
