Dillo took his first steps before dinner tonight. He was cruising along the couch and took about 4 steps over to the blue chair (didn't make it and fell.) We all saw it happen, and while Casper was a little whiny and grumpy, we managed to get her excited too.
It turned out the reason Casper was whiny is she's running a fever. She doesn't seem too sick, but is very hot to touch and ate only watermelon for dinner.
I have a "wonder mold kit" and a soccer ball cake pan in my shopping cart at wilton.com. There are some seriously obsessed cake people out there. (A wonder mold kit includes a bell-shaped cake pan with a special rod to ensure even baking, and a doll pick. A doll pick is half a barbie doll, the top half, with a big spike at the bottom. For making princess cakes, of course.)
We acquired a $10 red bike for Casper last night, from Craiglist. It's just okay; the seat is duct-taped a bit, and it's a little dinged up. But, you know, $10. We're discussing whether we should try to paint it pink or something. mr. flea still kind of wants to buy Casper the used $120 Trek bike (pink) she rode on at the local bike store. And since I just sold his backpack on Craigslist for $100, I suppose we could do that. But I mean, $120 for a used bike for a 4 year old? I kind of rebel.
