I think she got sick of me taking pictures...oh wait, that's her POINTER finger...
Yup, the dress was tucked into her diaper. Every girl's nightmare!
What do you call a Vietnamese-Filipino-French-Canadian-American blowing bubbles in Chinese and Mexican clothing? Beatrice on a Sunday! A package came on Saturday from our friends the McLeods, who have retired in Mexico. In it were the most beautiful dolls, headbands, and outfits, so we had a little fashion show today. I can't believe she kept one headband on for over an hour. The "Chinese" dress she wore for most of the day, although it was likely made in China, was a hand-me-down from her cousins, and was bought at H&M. But the Mexican clothes are straight from south of the border. We had a low-key weekend since I wasn't/am not feeling well. Nasty cold that I sure hope Beatrice doesn't catch. We went to hear Anthony play at Rotary Park for about 1/2 hour yesterday and saw about 50 dogs. Beatrice loved , loved, loved all those "dahs!" She went for a checkup last week and she has grown taller and gained a few more ounces , so she ranges in the 25th-35th percentiles for everything. Yesterday, by the way, she really turned a corner and is now officially a walker. Lucky us! She's doing great and is oh so proud of every step she takes. She climbed our stairs on her own twice. It occurred to me that Beatrice approaches most milestones as "slow and steady wins the race." Her style is definitely that she eases into things, taking her time, observing, practicing and, only when she can do something well, does it regularly. Her daily changes are subtle but, before you know it, there they are. She did this with crawling, chewing, and now walking. She has met all the 16-mo. milestones, and she did it at her own pace. The only thing she did quickly and overnight is grow teeth!

Here's a video for her friend Rachel, "blowing" bubbles, saying "hi," and testing the non-toxic label on the bubble container
