And there she goes...again




And There She Goes Again from Ali Edwards on Vimeo.


It's good times around here. Yes, indeed. 


Can you guess one of my most favorite parts in this video? 


She is almost 11 months old and getting closer and closer each day to that next big milestone. She is the happiest, most joy-filled, bright-eyed little girl. And so, so funny. She loves to eat and makes constant mmmmmmmmm noises bite after bite. She's especially interested in anything anyone else is eating and gets a little indignant when we deny her repeated requests to share. She's really a fearless eater (and yes, it's likely I am just a tad more sensitive to the whole food issue because of a certain almost-eight-year-old who also lives under this very same roof) and I love that about her.  


Watching her personality emerge has been really good entertainment. The kind that warms your heart and makes you remember all that is good and wonderful in the world. We laugh and giggle and support and blow spit bubbles and redirect and snuggle and pinch cheeks and say "watch this" over and over again.

    My favorite part is also when Simon says "Lets cheer for her!" That is just so sweet- I love that he gets what a proud moment this is for her. What a great big brother he is!

    They grow so fast. I have decided on a Statement instead of a word for 2010. For me it is "Dream Big-Every Moment Counts" I want to reach for goals and things in my life that I know I can do if I dream big and make every moment count in my life personally and that of my family. Thanks for all you do Ali and giving me this to think about and inspire me to Dream Big!

    I love this. My little one is the same age and toddling around with her walker. Such a blessing they are.

    Well MY favourite part was Anna's little curtsies (she sort of bobs down a couple of times after she took a few steps)... but then it could have been the way she sort of turns and waves her Mum to come help when she reaches the wall... but it could also have been her big brother saying "She's walking!" and the excitement in his voice... what a precious video... thanks for sharing... oh and I know what you mean about being a bit sensitive with the "next" child... apparently I am too (according to well meaning but sadly misinformed family members)! ;)

    Just loved your blog, the articles, the setup. Superb work. I really appreciate your effort for the same. Keep up the good work. It's that time of the year again when we celebrate two of the biggest and most celebrated festivals all over the globe.
    They are Christmas Day and New year.
