Sofia woke up just before 6am. She went up and down the hallway in her walker again – only this time she managed to steer herself! Then we all went to the park. Got home to get ready for the day. Pablo had rolled on a dead bird at the park so he was put outside to spend the day there. Sofia and I had breakfast then played. Sofia crawled to the walker, pulled herself up (which is amazing in itself considering it’s got wheels and moves unless you’re well balanced) and started walking! After a bit of play and book reading I put her to bed so she was asleep by 9.30am. She only slept for 30min.
When Sofia woke up we went to the library. Once again it was something on with some crayons and toys laid out – and a few kids playing. Sofia absolutely loved it! We met Lea (18mths), who’s mother is Brazilian. Such great girls :). The girls were quite interested in each other. Sofia used a walker there as well. She walks very well with one now – managing to get her balance, slow down and start up again. After also returning and renting new books we had lunch in the park. Lastly we managed to head into a toy store before we left. I ended up buying a few presents for her 1st birthday. Sofia nearly fell asleep in the car, but I managed to keep her awake until we got home. Sofia slept for a good hour this time.
When Sofia woke up we went to the park where she could walk around. She loves the slides, but also… she wants to walk everywhere! Up and down steep hills. She wants to use stairs etc. I find that funny as she cannot walk by herself yet. She’s not afraid of heights at all! She will be a nightmare when she can walk by herself! She heads straight for the steepest hill and just walk off the edge…! Sofia all of a sudden vomited again, so I took her home. There she vomited a bit again :(. She’s still smiling though, although she didn’t want breast milk. About 20min later she still had a full dinner… I went thought the nighttime routine and put her to bed with no issues or protests.
Here is a video of Sofia using the library walker:
