Hope is WALKING!!! What next, a man on the moon?

On November 11th, Hope ditched the crawl and started to walk. She started with some pretty small baby steps a few weeks ago, but then decided that small steps are for babies and she is a woman now! She took off and I wont call it pretty, but it was walking. She has been getting better, stronger and more balanced each day, not to mention more proud of herself. We are pretty proud of her too.

She has had a bad ear infection for over 3 months now and after several rounds of antibiotics we are going to the ENT tomorrow to talk tubes. I am not a big fan of it, but I also cant handle the meds that she is on. I didn't decide to have a baby with no drugs b/c I enjoy pain, I just dont like meds or drugs of any kind. We will see what they recommend, but the poor sweetheart has had really bad diaper rash from the meds and it doesnt seem to be getting better.

She might have a sore bottom and ears, but she can walk with the best of them....booya!
