51 Weeks

Well, this week-end Carmen spent her last week-end with her grand parents Nema and Nepa before they headed back to the States.  They were here for six weeks, then travelled for 2.5 weeks, and then back for this past week-end, and now off home again.  They went to Tasmania and Kangaroo Island.  And hit a kangaroo.  In our car.  The poor things!  Our poor car!
Carmen is having so much fun practising her walking, it is hard to get her to do anything else.  She cannot stand up on her own without pulling up on something, so when she falls down she has to crawl over to a piece of furniture to get up again.  She also said her first word.  She has been saying mama, dada, nana, gaga, etc for ages, but with no associations, but she now points to Jeffrey and says dada.  So, I think that counts as a first word.  And just today she has started mooing when I ask her what a cow says, but her version of a moo is rather different from my own.  We didn't take such great photos this week - the only photo session I did with her, I could barely get monkey away from her for a second.  But he is her beloved lovey, and beats out both Jeffrey and I for her affection.
