My favorite buddy

- Grace said this to Matthew today, "You're my favorite buddy." My heart melted!  10/5

- Matthew took several steps while holding my hands. 10/9

- Matthew continued practicing walking by taking several steps while pushing Grace's pink princess car. He also discovered that he can now straddle the seat all by himself. 10/10

- Grace's teacher described her as very clever. I don't think it was meant as a compliment!  Apparently she covered the drain of the sink with paper towels and proceeded to fill the sink with water until it almost overflowed.  10/10.

-When Grace realized the Matthew could now sit on the car, she volunteered to push him around the race track (the loop that goes through the front hall/living room/kitchen/dining room/office). They both thoroughly enjoyed themselves! 10/12

- When driving one morning, we heard Grace say, "Look at that big pineapple!" It was the top of a palm tree which actually did resemble a pineapple. 10/14

- Grace road a pony for the first time.   Although it took some coaxing, she loved it once she got going! 10/14
