New Twists

Some updates:

• Mainly, Adelais is walking like a pro. She started walking alittle over two weeks ago and now just cruises around the house. She still has trouble stepping over or onto things, but other than that she is good to go, and she does!

• Last week, for the first time, I walked into the room while Andrea was holding Adelais and she (Adelais, not Andrea) leaned and reached to come to me. It made me so happy.

• The stereo - we have a stereo in the living room and when it is on Adelais loves to grap the big volume nob and turn it up and down and up and down. She doesn't quite get the concept of "too loud" yet, so we have to be close by, or we end up running and turning it down.

That's it for now - she is just getting more and more fun! : )

First Performance

Last Saturday my dance company, The PlayGround, performed in a choreographers' showcase at the Clarice Smith Center for the Performing Arts at University of Maryland College Park. We had a 3pm performance, so it was perfect for Adelais to come and watch us dance. Grandpa C brought her along to our "pre-performance event" in the lobby (see photo) and then back at intermission to watch us perform on stage. She did great - though I'm not sure how much she actually watched (again, see photo)...
