Pledge of Allegiance

So, we learned that Triton learned the Pledge of Allegiance at school. They also have another verse at the end now! With liberty and justice for all is how I and everyone else learned the ending. However this is Triton's version. With liberty and justice for all, Please sit down. Isn't that the cutest thing ever? The teacher must tell all the children to sit down and he takes that as the close of the pledge. I thought it was just cute as could be. Quinn has been standing on her own by the couch and toys and toy boxes for like a month now. She has been trying to take a step for the past two weeks and with her wobbly legs she could only muster one step or two then fall down on her behind. These past few days she is walking from object to object with only a few steps here and there, but yesterday she walked from the chair on one side of the living room to the couch that I was sitting on. It is only like 4 feet from that chair to the couch but she did it without falling and should be walking by her first birthday. I was worried that she might not be walking by her first birthday, but that shouldn't be an issue at all now. She like Triton didn't crawl for a long time, but it seemed with both of them that crawling just wasn't going to cut it. Triton starting crawling just around 7 months and was taking his first steps at around 9 months. Quinn took longer to crawl but just like Triton only a couple months later and those first steps have been taken. It is so funny to see her follow her brother around and pester him. Funny thing though is if she goes off on her own, then he follows her. He follows her to take toys from her and also to make sure that she doesn't get into his stuff, but it is good to see they play with one another at such a young age. I wondered if he would just be bored with her and not include her in his daily routines. He has a tent setup in the front room, just one of them little tents that have a tube coming out of it, just basically a play fort thing. He lets her play in that with him, and lately he has been getting rougher and rougher with her, but that is when he gets sent to his room. He doesn't understand that she isn't as tough as he is yet. He has been getting more and more whiny. So funny Monday night he was being a terd not listening to us at all. We were at Lowes and he was running off, so when we left I told him when we got home that he was going straight to his room. He threw a fit of course when I made him go to his room. He came down a bit later and did something again that forced me to send him to his room. On his was up the stairs, he was crying and screaming "not again"! So funny, heartbreaking, but funny nonetheless.
