Selah was walking sideways to her right, while looking at me to her left. I told her to "watch out or you'll bonk again." So she stopped and walked around the chair to where she bonked yesterday, and softly whacked her head in the same spot and pointed and laughed. Also for anyone who, like me, thinks that she doesn't eat enough, we took inventory today: she had a couple ounces of milk at 6:30, a few corn flakes at 7:00, a full bowl of oatmeal with raspberries and applesauce at 8:00, with two cups of diluted orange juice, another 4 oz. milk bottle at 9:30, the biggest bowl of spinach pasta blended up that you've ever seen (because you probably haven't ever seen it in any size) for lunch with water, another 4 oz. bottle at 3:00, and then about 60 raisins and a cracker at 4:00, then a bowl of egg, chicken, cheese and tomatoes for dinner at 5:30, washed down with no less than three sippy cups full of water, followed by several crackers, then an entire adult-sized chocolate chip cookie and a cracker at 7:00, and another 6 oz. bottle of milk at 7:15. It's pretty much more than I ate all day, and she definitely has me beat on liquid intake. I made up my extra needed calories with cookie dough though about 5 minutes ago, so I'm good. Casson made homemade cookies yesterday and they were way too good. Suddenly last night he realized that he had used twice as much butter as the recipe called for.

I lost my camera for real and for good last week, so I'm using our webcam to take some low quality videos for all of us who are going through video withdrawal. Selah is starting to jump and to attempt running. She walks up and down small hills or inclines and over cracks and across dirt lots. She'd rather be walking around than doing anything else other than eating. This morning was the first morning in months that she slept past 7, so we got to sleep in on Labor Day.
