A New Day, A New Trick

As you know, yesterday Greta decided to walk. Not simply take steps, but rather take off!

Tonight, she surprised me at bedtime. I put her in the crib, played peek-a-boo with her blanket, and then turn to leave. I heard her crib rattle, and when I turned around, this is what I saw:


She was so pleased with herself! Within seconds she realized she could not only shake the crib, but also bounce on the mattress. Her grin got even bigger:

Then she noticed that the railing was the perfect height for her toothless mouth. And ta da! She discovered a new teether.

I can hardly wait for my standing, wailing, crib-shaking, teething daughter to show daddy her new trick at 3 am!
