Natalie is now 17 months going on 4 years old. Although I like to think that she is still my baby, she reminds me on more than one occasion each day that she wants no part of being a baby. Her every moment is spent trying to play just like her older brother and sister and, for the most part, she does a pretty good job keeping up. Natalie is now able to run and walks very well. She is stable on the stairs and can make her way up with little assistance. She is able to say many words now and her laugh melts my heart.
Natalie wants no part of using a "baby swing", she sees Aaron and Helena use a "big kid swing" and she wants to do the same. After lots of practice and a little bit of stress on Mommy's part, Natalie is able to slowly swing on the "big kid swing" by herself, which is just as she likes it!
Summer vacation is exhausting!
Natalie fell asleep one early afternoon as I was pushing her gently on the swing.
