13 months Thanksgiving and walking

We have found a new source of renewable energy.  Tory.  She is in a constant state of perpetual motion.  She loves to scoot around the house using her "crawl and slide" method.  She always seizes an opportunity to scale the staircase when the gate is left open for 2 seconds.  She has gotten lots of practice walking with her new walking/riding toy and has started to walk on her own.  She can walk quite well when she wants, but she still prefers the scoot.  Tory had her 13 month checkup and she did great.  The Dr. was quite impressed with her motor skills.  She is now 28 inches tall and 21lbs.  She loves to swing on her tree swing in the yard and had lots of fun playing in the leaves.  Tory got to take full part in Thanksgiving this year, enjoying some sweet potatoes, stuffing, and cranberry sauce.  She also watched the Thanksgiving Day parade on TV.  She likes the balloons and floats and really enjoyed the marching bands, she would start dancing when they came on.  
Here are some pictures and videos from Thanksgiving and the last few weeks. 



 
Happy Thanksgiving
