I saw your walking video, and I raise you THIS VIDEO of me walking. Sure, it's lots of clips of me walking six steps and then falling down. So you might have me beat on distance. But can you walk holding a shoe? Giggling at a dog? Holding a car? Can you walk to a cat door and play with it? Yeah. That's what I thought. Game on, Aunt Maria. Bring it.
Love,
Erin
Erin and Aunt Maria have been having a bit of a friendly "let's see who can walk first" competition, ever since Aunt Maria was first in the hospital. I, personally, am DELIGHTED that Maria won fair and square (don't tell Erin) because 1) it's awesome for Maria to be mobile again and 2) having a walking baby in the house is, quite frankly, hazardous.
The good thing about having zero plans for Thanksgiving weekend is that when the whole family is sick it's no big deal. Baby puking all day Thursday? Guess we'll watch TV all day. Mama sleeping all day and not feeling well? Guess we'll have Thanksgiving dinner another day. John lost a day in doing house projects because he was taking care of everyone else on Thursday. But otherwise, it was pretty decent timing to have a sick family. We're having Thanksgiving dinner on Saturday. Dexter is most excited about the ice cream that we bought to go on top of the apple pie. He won't eat the pie. But yes, please, he will eat some ice cream.
We are all, thankfully, feeling much better. Erin is still touch-and-go as far as puking, and she's not really eating, but she is much much better.
