It has been an amazing few weeks. Amita has started standing and walking unassisted... of course, she still prefers to hang on to something or someone when she can, but she's making great progress. It was fitting that she started all of this around Independence Day... although, she's been independent since the day she was born!
The 4th of July was a real treat this year... we got to spend it with family! Cousin Piper helped encourage Amita's walking (they both ended up taking their first steps at our house... Piper started during Amita's first birthday weekend!) and it was great to have the girls together to play again. They were also real troopers in the heat wave. Even though it was over 100, Piper kept asking to go outside!
Here's the girls enjoying a wagon ride on our way to a 4th of July parade.
Amita watching the parade with daddy. She managed to score some candy!!
Trying out the toddler splash pond after the parade. The water was super cold and Amita wasn't the biggest fan... but she did get brave enough to reach her arms in a few times. It was a much needed cool down for all of us.
The ducks we entered into the duck races on the 4th. We didn't win fastest or best dressed... but we have a lot of great ideas for next year.
A future golf pro! The girls got to test out some occupations at the children's museum in Milwaukee.
Amita the banker... not surprising that she enjoyed the computer and calculator!
Taking turns on the slide on a cooler morning (not quite 80 yet!).
The whole gang downtown!
