Walker Family Update

Hello Everyone! Elizabeth is now 10 months old and we can’t believe it! In the past couple of months she has done quite a lot. She has lots of fun toys that she likes to play with – although one of her favorites is a big green ball. She was sick for quite a while with Bronchiolitis and we had to give her breathing treatments several times a day. Surprisingly she did extremely well with them and would sit there patiently until the treatment was complete. After she got well, Reese and his dad built her a swing in our back yard. She loves it! Everyday she goes for a swing after we get home from work. We took Elizabeth swimming in Reese’s parent’s pool for the first time at the beginning of May and she didn’t like it too much. She has since learned to love the pool and plays and splashes and really enjoys herself.

Reese, Elizabeth and I went to the beach mid May with my parents and my brother, sister in law and neice, McKie. Elizabeth and McKie are only 10 weeks apart and it was really fun to watch them interact with each other. Elizabeth did NOT like the sand or the ocean! Any time a little bit of her body touched the sand she would howl. On our last day there, Reese finally lured her onto the sand with her beachball and she was okay for a few minutes, but as you will see from the pictures, she soon realizes she’s in the sand and gets upset all over again. We are going to the beach with Reese’s parents at the end of June and we are hopeful that she will enjoy it more then.

Elizabeth is crawling all over the place and we have to watch her at all times. She will pull up on anything she can and is starting to cruise a little. She just got in one of her top teeth, so now she has three teeth! Be sure to check out the new 9 and 10 month pictures below!
