A few days before she turned 10 months old (on Sept 10th), Carly started full-on walking. She still doesn't walk as her main mode of transportation, but it's pretty close. She walks in and out of rooms, all around the house throughout the day. If she's in a hurry or doesn't want to miss something, she'll do her speed crawl. Otherwise, she's on her feet.
As of her turning 10 months old, she also claps when we say clap and waves "bye-bye" when someone is leaving.

Becoming a Lego Expert
Maddie and Carly play with Legos every day. I'm always amazed at the buildings and "towers" Maddie puts together all by herself these days.

Trip to Minneapolis
Just before Maddie started back at school, we took a trip to Minneapolis to escape the hot Texas summer. We chose Minneapolis for its lovely Summer weather, Mall of America kid-friendly attractions and so we could visit with a friend of mine and her family who used to live in Austin.
Both girls were great on the plane rides to and from MN and we had a busy, fun-fulled five days. We swam, visited the Minneapolis Zoo, enjoyed Nickelodeon Universe at the Mall of America, spent an afternoon with the Stephens family, including a trip to nearby Wayzata for ice cream and outdoor fun. We also visited a park and tried to spend as much time outside as possible in the 80 degree weather.
It was a wonderful vacation!
