Snapshots of our Life: Blue Bonnets and Walking

The biggest news to report is that Amelia has decided to walk! Literally, about 12 days ago now, I could see the decision making process run through her brain, just under the skin of her forehead! And there was no turning back, she has been busy, busy, busy since then. And she's pretty good at it too; I think she made most of the mistakes in her head over the last month or so that she was deciding to walk or not to walk! Anyhow...

We succumbed to a Texas tradition this past month. We took "Easter pictures" of Amelia in the blue bonnets...oh no...do not be deceived, this is no ordinary weed that grows tall so that it can hide ant hills, slithering snakes and who knows what else...no this is the most famed spring flower in all of Texas, and you must place your child in the middle of one of these patches, by themselves, and snap cute little photos while you pray that nothing eats them alive in the few minutes you are 6 feet away from them! so...enjoy....
