Two Quick Notes

Taryn got her ears pierced today! And she was a champ, cried for less than a minute on each side, and when the guy who did the piercing tried to give her a pink balloon when he finished, she refused to take it from her. Smart girl, and I'm glad she didn't hate me afterwards for it. So adorable, it's not even funny.

Second, I just saw her stand up by herself from sitting and take three steps. She may have gone further, but she was chewing on her shirt and pushed over the laundry basket with her free hand. Which she is now in the process of dragging down the hallway. Smart girl.
