Monique has recently started standing up on her own. She still prefers using something to help her up, but she can do it. Lately though she's seemed a little less stable on her feet, though its probably simply because she's working at picking up her speed - yikes for Mom and Dad. Though I guess we've been trying to figure out how to fit some exercise into our days...

Sunday we're heading out to South Western Maine for a week. Trying to take it easy on our first vacation trip - though Monique has already made several trips to Pittsburgh so she could probably handle something bigger, so this is more for us to take it slow.
