A while ago we bought Callie a used "swing set." There is a slide, a swing, and a little fortress with a steering wheel. So far, the primary use has been as a place to quickly put her (and confine her) when we eat outside. She likes the swing, but it isn't near as cool as the swing at the park. Tonight Mike out her in the fortress standing up and she had a blast. She hung out in there for over 30 minutes.Callie is going places. She loved playing with the steering wheel and even chewed on it a few times. Her balance has greatly improved as she was able to move the steering wheel and hold on with one hand at a time.
Here she is legitimately trying to climb up the steps.
Then we decided to help her out a little. And it was just too cute not to take a picture.We walked over to the park. The spray ground isn't turned off yet, so Mike got it going and explored it with Callie. She was fascinated with the water.
Mike took her to a jet that shoots water from the ground. It is a little more forceful than the previous one. I missed the first time she reached out an touched it and both her and Mike jumped backwards. So this is the second time, but still a good expression.
And she felt it again!
Our last adventure for the night was having Callie "walk." We just discovered that she is able to take "steps" with us holding her hands. Three by herself, lots initiated by us leaning just a little to get her started. Here are the three steps.
And then Callie fell apart because she was exhausted from all this exploring and it was time to go home and go to bed.
