Milestone!

She stands! Last night came home from work to find Trinity standing all by herself. She stood there, hands busy fingering a toy, for at least a minute or so, until she realised that she was standing without grabbing anything. Then she let the toy fall and her eyes widened in panic as she reached out to find something to grab on to. Very cute! Also, saw yesterday that she's now able to climb on top of the low coffee table. She's been trying very hard over the past week or so and now finally she's done it. Yesterday, she also appeared to be more confident when negotiating the step from the dining to the living. She used to panic, cry a bit when she had to negotiate it and usually came down on her front, one foot at a time. Yesterday, she came down butt-first - which is safer.

She also shows a great deal of personality - I don't remember the other kids showing as much spunk and personality as she does when they were her age. These days she wriggles, snorts and makes noises to show she wants me. When she sees Owain nursing, she'd scuttle over and try to pull/push him off, then grab on and pull herself up on my other arm. Its her way of telling me she wants to nurse. When you feed her something and she doesn't like it, she'd grab the spoon and pull it away. She loves her hide and seek games. Gets really excited when her kor-kor and che-che play catching with her. She loves to 'run' with me in the sling.

Seems like there's a growth spurt happening because I see these changes coming fast one after another.

Before I know it, she'll be toddling away.

They grow so fast...
