Ally's new love is dogs

She was watching Animal Planet this morning. There were some dogs on there and she was trying to talk to them. Anytime she sees a dog she starts to pant like a dog. She is working on saying dog, right now it comes out like "dud", but we know what she's talking about.

Ally enjoys playing with her laughing lion and her baby tad.
Last week my sister Tiffney went with us to the pool.
Ally was really cute in Tiffney's cap and goggles.

Ally is becoming very comfortable in the water. Tiffney is standing an arm's reach from her, but Ally didn't care.
At one point Ally thought she'd walk through the water by herself. She made it to the wall to my surprise. I actually think she walks better in the water than on land.

The picture is a little dark, but Ally took a few steps by herself and then proceeded to fall into the ottoman. When we were in Gatlinburg I bought her a pair of walking shoes from Stride Rite. There is a huge difference in how she walks when she wears the stride rite shoes and her play shoes. As of right now, Stride Rite has me convinced their shoes are great!!
