We bought two pairs of footwear for Saachi recently.
A nice pair of pink booties, and regular pair of sneakers.
She loves them, and has one or the other on throughout the day.
If she goes barefoot for a while, she soon realizes something is missing. She'd then bring a pair out to us, and have us help her put them on.
Now, she has a tough time deciding which one to wear.
If she is wearing the pink 'uns, she'd lug the other pair (sneakers) up
to Shalu, stand up holding Shalu's legs, and would ask her
in her mumblese, "ummm, ummm!", while looking at
Shalu, the sneakers, and the booties in turn.
For people with IQ comparable to mine: translation - i want the
sneakers on.
After some time, (which isn't all that long), she decides
that the sneakers are not doing her justice, and she'd now
drop the pink booties at shalu's feet, with the same, "ummm!".

Saachi Learns to walk
These days, she wants to walk.
Doesn't matter that she can't.
Doesn't stop her from walking.
Gritty girl!
She'll get hold of her walker, or
the cabinet, the sofa, a chair,
or Shalu's legs - and walk a-way she does.
Today, she walked a full round
around our apartment sidewalk
with the help of her walker.
