Driving Miss Hope

Last Friday (10-10-08) I went to pick up Hope from Day Care and this is what I saw! My big girl driving the coupe!!! She could only go backwards, but she did it and was having a blast!! Luckily I scored one of these fancy coupes at a garage sale a few weeks ago, so we have one at home she can play with too!!
This week, she is starting to stand on her own without holding on to anything. It may only be for a few seconds, but she is learning to balance on her own two feet. She is walking behind her toys and likes to hold on to our fingers while walking too. Her main choice of transportation is crawling and she is FAST!!! She looked like a wounded grasshopper when she first started crawling... she would kick out her back right leg and try to straighten it while crawling. It was so funny! She still does it every now and then.
