Wow - the timing of that last post could not have been more perfect. That was just yesterday. YESTERDAY!!!!
Today has been a big day. Pretty big indeed.
We had mac n' cheese for lunch. My BABY is old enough to have mac n' cheese for lunch. *sigh*
Then we picked up our friend Miss Emily to go get our free slurpees at 7/11 on 7/11. We went back to Emily's house to enjoy our slurpees. Evette was such a huge fan. LOVED the slurpee. I mean LOVED IT! She cried when we finished it off. Seriously.
After our slurpees we played for a little bit. I was telling Emily how Evette can stand on her own now, but that she doesn't like to do it so much because it scares her. I then got Evette to stand up to show off for Miss Emily and then the crazy thing happened. She walked. Evette took her first steps. Yup. Emily was sitting in front of Evette and was holding a ball. Evette took a few steps to grab the ball from her. True story. AMAZING! I was just squealing and laughing and so excited and so happy and so nostalgic and so fast and so grown up and so ahhh!!! Amazing. What a strong little girl I have. She did it a second time as well. A few minutes later she also let go of a box that she was using for balance to take a few steps over to the tv stand to use for balance. AMAZING.
I don't know what else to say. Is my baby still a baby? The answer is yes, forever. When I call my mom I say, "Mom!" and she says, "Hey Baby Girl!" Still a baby.

"I'll love you forever, I'll like you for always, as long as I'm living my baby you'll be."
... even if she does decide to grow up...
