We have a Walker on our hands!

Camille has been taking a step or two here and there for a couple weeks now. Today we were playing in the living room and she started taking Lots of steps!!! We got some on video:



These weren't even the best ones! She's getting the hang of it!! It's amazing how fast babies grow! She's barely 10 months old and she's walking, babbling, eating and becoming a little person!
She has four teeth coming in on top. Two have poked through but the other two are almost there. It's REALLY ROUGH. She's not sleeping well at all. Like every 1-2 hours waking up crying. It's terrible, because I want to help her and there's nothing I can do. And I'm exhausted. I had a breakdown last week because I ruined four bags of milk by not putting them away when I got home. I just forgot. And since I was running low on milk to take to day care I just freaked out. Not my best moment. But hey, we all have them. I'm pretty sure sleep would really help that out.
I stumbled across a website called Sleep Sisters where they talked about bedtimes for different age groups. Camille was going to bed every night way past what they said she should be. They offer packages but with my car accident, I don't have the funds to work with them. I contacted them asking if they had any advice or could work with me on something. One of the women called and talked to me for a while. She was AMAZING. She gave me a ton of pointers and told me that it's probably mostly teething and if it continues after her teeth pop through to give her a call back. We've been moving up her bedtime for the last few nights. Tonight we put her down around 7 and she only fussed for a little while. Previously she was fighting sleep until 8:30-9pm!! This is Awesome!

In other news we went to Joshua Tree last weekend for our first time. It was pretty near, mostly just driving around and climbing on some rocks. Work is good, tax season is done and while we're still busy, there's at least a chance to breathe! I'm starting a ton of knitting projects, I've inspired!! I'm going to really try to get some knitting done for Christmas presents this yaer. I've got like 6 projects I'm hoping to complete. I don't have all the yarn I need, so I'm starting with the ones I have and when I get paid I'll start buying what I need. I need a ton of super bulky :-) Yay for knitting!

That's all for now, just a quick hello :-)
