weekend and a walker (almost)

Grandma Pat and Grandpa Ron came up for the weekend and the kids had lots of fun getting some playtime in!  

 

 Colin showed them how to play his new favorite game "don't let the balloon touch the ground"

 

and charlotte showed off her new cell phone...

... as well as her new balance / standing skills

and she led grandpa on a few laps around the house.

Charlotte loves her little walker, and colin is SO excited that she can now "chase" him.  He asks every day, "Does charlotte want to chase me now?" and then they take off in laps around the house... not that he waits for her, he laps her a few times per chase.. .but she thinks it is hilarious.

it's so cute watching them starting to actually play together and I think the "walking" is helping that.

Speaking of walking, right after Grandma and Grandpa left on Sunday, big girl decided to WALK on her own from daddy to mommy!  Just a couple of steps but they were totally on her own!  So proud of her!
