Getting Dressed

Rosalie's latest trick: attempting to wear EVERYTHING. She tries to put clothes, socks, paper, even this canvas shopping bag over her head like a shirt.

Here's a video of Rosalie wearing Mary's bra.

More Walking Videos

You ask, we provide. Here are two newer videos of Rosalie showing off her walking skills. She walks more than she crawls now, and has started to "trot" a little. It still surprises me when I see her round a corner on her feet!

Girly Giggles!

Even though Rosalie's walking has been the talk around the Nutterson household this week, I had to share these giggles with our family and friends...despite the black beans in her mouth at the same time.

And She Walks!

Here is a video of our cautious walker, Rosalie, both walking and brushing her teeth at the same time. We are so proud of our little walker, and thankful that her landings thus far have all been relatively graceful!

Rosalie gets funky

3 wks, 3 illnesses

Like we could get Rosalie to open wide and stay still long enough to take this photo.
Christmas Eve: Stomach flu - push fluids
Between Xmas and NYE: Ear infection and swimmers ear - 10 days medicine
This week: Strep throat - at least it's only 5 days medicine and one day out of daycare.

Stomach Flu

Christmas 2010 will be the year we all got the stomach flu. It started with Rosalie at 10pm Christmas Eve. We were worried about her, so I let her sleep on my chest instead of the crib. Several times through the night she would awaken, throw up, then her head would fall right back down, passed out. Thankfully, she was better for Christmas Day mass. But after Mass, the flu hit Mary and me.

It took some serious effort to rehydrate everyone, especially Rosalie, but we're all better.

Is it love or just "taking one for the team" when you let your 11 month old 'spray' on you and your clothes, rather than the floor, to minimize the mess?
