Good Morning to Everyone.
While Christina took Aurora to wild waves. It is a water park with slides. She loved it. When I get pictures from her I will send some your way. This little girl is growing up to fast. Don't tell her mom but she took her first step yesterday. She couldn't do it again but it was her first step. I wasn't going to tell her mom because it is one of those things that her mom and dad need to be the first to see. It was so cute. She didn't realize she did it. LOL.
