Our Little "Walker"

Girlfriend is on the move...literally. She wants to walk everywhere! She can take several steps by herself, but mostly just wants to hold your hand and cruise around. Chris and I took her to Fashion Island this weekend to enjoy the beautiful weather and spend some time together since Chris has been gone for a couple of weeks.

We took a traditional trip to the pet store for Ashley to scream with delight at every puppy she sees. As we left, she insisted on walking from the pet store all the way to the carousel. So, walk she did...




After her long walk, she took a fun ride on the carousel with Daddy.




Again, she decided that she would rather walk to the car than hitch a ride in the stroller or in Mom or Dad's arms. She walked all the way from Macy's to the Koi Ponds, through the Atrium shops and out to the parking lot. For those of you not familiar to Fashion Island...that is REALLY far.





Once we got back to our car and we buckled her into her carseat, I took off her little shoes to cool off her feet. What did I find? Two big blisters on her big toes. My little girl is learning one of the most important rites of passage to womanhood at a very early age...I guess it's time for Baby Jimmy Choo!
