Hazel walks

A few days ago another mum watched Hazel standing against a table and predicted that she would soon be walking. i demurred. No no, she's been doing that for months, we think ivy might walk first, but hopefully not for another few months.

Right.

Today Chrissy visited, with her two strapping lads, who are only a couple of weeks older than our girls but heaps bigger and more developed. They have been walking for a while now, and are experts.

About an hour into the visit, Hazel got up and walked ten steps. She looked awfully pleased, and we all clapped, and Hazel clapped, and Ivy clapped. Hazel tried again a few times; once she walked for 25 steps. Her nanna was counting.

After you watch this video, a row of pictures appears along the bottom. This is the Related Videos list... there are a LOT of other people with kids called Hazel who have just learnt to walk.



Things are improving around here. The bad day sleeps are gone for the moment, and the nights are much better. Two nights ago I woke at 5:30am and did not remember a thing. Oh I love those mornings.

Right now someone is quietly singing instead of being asleep. I hope she drops off soon. Trudi and Judy have gone to a shop to look at a thing. Could not tell you what shop and what thing. I probably knew once, quite recently, but not now.

Hey we have chickens! They are small and so very cute. I just went out to look at them and they are asleep in a tiny pile in the corner of their coop.
