- We had lunch with my old friend who we've met for lunch a number of times. I decided we should get it to-go and come back to the house since she's been on the verge of meltdown the last two days. It worked out perfectly and we all sat at the table together ;) I think she's gettingused to seeing my friend Suzann sometimes because she was quite excited to see her today!
- BREAKTHROUGH! I asked her if she wanted more and she shook her head yes and gave me the sign for "more"! Normally I show her and then help her hands do the motion, but today she did it for the first time all by herself, without me showing her first!!!! So exciting ;) I love watching the "light bulb" go on!

She, of course, was not afraid of the planes at all...she watched, but was sort of indifferent. Lots of sun (and sunscreen), people and stuff to look at...she was a happy Bird.

Tuesday

-

Naps:
- she kept rubbing her eyes and putting her head down this morning, so I let her nap from about 9:45 - 10:45am. I went to check on her and she popped right up.
- since she had napped a bit I the morning, we went on a long lake walk and had a later afternoon nap from about 3 -

Other:
- almost lost the purple Toms at the lake, she had taken them off and thrown them out of the stroller, somehow without me noticing. I realized and we turned around to search...ended up finding them about 100 yards apart, about 2 blocks back...thank god!
- had some nice walking time and even dipped our feet in the water as we watched the Seafair prep at the boat launch.
- she had her first big fall and bonk (with me anyway). We were sitting on the couch reading and I stood up to get her (to head upstairs for her nap) and she stood up as well, on the couch. Before I could grad her, she of course stumbled back and went over the arm rest. Bonked her head pretty good, was really upset for about 5 mins...she had a good cry and let me look her over. I'm shocked, but there doesn't seem to be a bump...I really thought there would be. She was alert and could move all her limbs and was quickly more interested in playing with the ice I grabbed for the potential bump than anything else. I felt over her entire head multiple times and she never flinched like there were any tender spots. Even so, I kept her up for awhile before taking a nap, just to keep an eye on her. I read that its a myth that you should keep them awake after a fall, but i did it anyway. I pretty much almost had a heart attack...she is resilient!
