We Are Walking....Sort Of.

Ryder is finally walking... sort of. He walks like Frankenstein with his arms in the air and not bending his legs. He will stand up and take off walking between the furniture or to chase after me. He goes about 15 to 20 steps then stops and claps for himself. He can stop and change directions. If he starts to fall he will bend over to catch himself. However, this is not fast enough for him. So he will drop and off he goes crawling. He also as figured out how to climb into boxes, baskets, and anything big enough to fit him. He emptied out his diapers and wipes and climbed in for a ride courtesy of Reganne. These two play really well together for short periods of time. Reganne loves to pick him and take him where she wants to play. Or in reverse to get him out of her stuff. She loves to push him around in the baskets or on his little fire truck.





This has been a really quiet week. There were the only 3 pictures I took. It was rather nice not be running around with our heads cut off.
Reganne finally had her speech evaluation with the school district. Her speach is in the average range and slightly below. They told me that this is nothing to be worried about and for us to continue to work with her by reading, singing, and talking. However, she will not qualify for the preschool program. She loved going to this preschool and was not happy when I told her that she wouldn't be coming back.
Gas here is finally under a 2 dollars. $1.77 to be exact. I felt like celebrating no more loans to fill up the gas tank each week.
We hope everyone has a Happy Thanksgiving.

The lowest gas I've found so far is $1.97. It's seems unbelievable that gas is that cheap (and that I think it is cheap). Oh, and I love watching children learn how to walk. It's just sooo cute.
