Floating Angel

Baby loves walking, but she especially loves walking while holding things in her hands. She’ll walk all the way around the first floor of our abode holding her ukulele, for example, or make the same trip carrying a book and a cordless phone. When she does walk across the floor with her hands free, she walks so lightly that her feet seem not to touch the floor. She’ll take three or four rapid stutter steps where the bottoms of her feet might just brush the top of the carpet, but that’s about it.

Today for lunch she ate most of an egg yolk, a good amount of tofu, and some toast. After dinner, not long before bed, she drank cranberry juice for the first time, begging for more sips as soon as the cup was lowered from her lips.
