Big Steps!!!

We have learned rather quickly that we have to celebrate every success no matter how big or small. For us, this is a big one. Meg got out an old diaper box to make a turntable with. We all left the room to get something and when we came back in Leah was using the box as a walker. It was very exciting for all of us. She has really made a lot of progress over the past couple of months. We are still waiting for her first words, but with what happened today it gives us hope that she will be talking in no time.

That's awesome! I was thinking about you and your family when I was sitting in church today and I was wishing I could just look over and say hi. Then after church Dallin mentioned that Carter hasn't been over in a long time and I realized I'm not the only one missing the Heraldsons. You have such a wonderful family. Thanks for sharing such great things on your blog.

Miss you.

I love when Leah looks up at the end and smiles! It's like she's saying, "Pretty terrific, huh!" Yep! Pretty terrific!
