Walkin' and Talkin' (well...Blabbin' maybe)

Amber is growing faster with every passing day. She's becoming more curious about everything around her and boy is she getting strong! We just had Dale (Sandi's father) help us install a couple gates for our stairs and it couldn't have been at a better time. Until now we'd been using our kitchen chairs to help block Amber from taking a trip down (or up) the stairs. However she'd started doing a "Superman" and slowly lifting and moving the chairs aside! Not anymore little woman...you're penned in now. :)

Amber is really picking up speed on the walking track, too. She loves picking up a book and then taking it over to windowsill in our kitchen...and then back for another one. She always has a little smile on her face and such determined eyes when she's doing it, too. Quite cute!

Another thing she loves doing is testing out gravity. She'll grab any toy, book, or other object laying around and take it to the chairs blocking the stairs and toss it down. Then she'll lean over and watch it tumble and roll down the steps until it crashes against the wall leaving a nice black streak along the baseboard. Thank god for Mr. Clean Magic Erasers!

Check out this embedded video for more of Amber's funny antics. She loves car rides especially with the windows down and wind in her hair! Go Amber Arms, Go!
