Leanne took her first few independent steps this week. Her granny has been reporting her progress while Mr & Mrs S have been off at work but today, Mrs S was overjoyed to have Leanne dashing towards her from the couch - our first witnessed steps. How lovely. How we would feel bittersweet heartache when I imagine how these first few steps would eventually lead to her independence (from us!).
In the last week, I was also chirpily lulled out of my slumber one early morning with Leanne standing by the bed beside me repeating "Baybeee, Baybe-eeee, Baybeeeeeee". Music to my ears.
She has also learnt how to make kissing noises to us. Naptimes and on departures and arrivals, we get treated to screams of "No!! (don't go!)" and then "Muah, muah, muah". What a lovely way to go.
And Mrs S's favourite is of course, "Ma ma! Ma ma!" which has now officially displaced her most common utterance "papa, papa, papa ...."
We love Leanne.
