Everybody thought you would be able to walk by now because you stand so well. But at the playground other mothers were telling me you crawl too well to ever want to slow down and walk. They were so impressed by how you could climb the stairs, then back down feet first, go down the slide and then crawl away to the stairs again. It it true you look too tiny to be able to do any of that. Many of them were nervous for me and offered to catch you as I let you down the slide, but you can do it all on your own.

A few nights ago, Aba told me that you took 3 steps all by yourself. I didn’t get to see this. I got to see you take 1 or 2 steps but then you get down and start crawling. Noam saw you taking a step too and said that he was proud of you.

Your favorite activity right now is pushing things around. I know that sounds funny, and it is funny to watch too. One thing you like to do is push things about your height so that you can walk. You also like to push Noam around when he is sitting on his truck. But you also like to push small items around when you are “crawling”. You hold it with one or two hands and just do a scoot thing on the ground so you can push it along in front of you.

On Wednesday, one of your top teeth finally poked through. So now you have almost 3. We are waiting for the 2nd top tooth to pop through any day now.
