Diego Walks!

Yesterday, Diego walked with a more deliberate, steady stance than ever before, so we are making it official! He took his first five steps on November 19! Since then, he's been practicing, but grows weary quite quickly. We have captured it on video and in photos, which will get posted as soon as Abuela's camera returns home and sends them via email.

Happy Thanksgiving to all of our friends and family (and to anyone who happens to be visiting this site!). With October and November - my busiest work months - almost over, I will have a chance to update this site more often with photos and tales.

Diego learned a new word this past week, too. "Duck!" Pretty much anything that moves is now a "Cat" or a "Duck". Even bears....I think it's funny that his first words are cat and duck. He hasn't said no, though he does nod his head no and yes to show his preference. This makes things like eating or getting down out of the highchair much easier now that he knows how to communicate to us! He points with great interest when he wants something, too.
