Cowboys and Carpet Walkers

One of my sisters gave us a pair of boots about a year ago for dress ups and Halloween, what ever the need might be. Dee wouldn't even touch them so we put them on a shelf and didn't think about it again. Then one day he wanted the boots he put them on and it's been a battle ever since. That kid loves those darn boots, and jeans which he now loves to put on himself. He also loves hats and I'd bet if we had a cowboy hat that would be his favorite. He loves horses: riding, petting, and feeding them. When he's got on his boots, jeans, a baseball cap, and a t-shirt...I'd bet he's a cowboy. It makes be laugh because neither DH (dear husband) nor I am really into the whole "roper" thing (a roper is someone who dresses like a cowboy but is not a cowboy). Who knows.
...Mean while back at the ranch. Wee has been exposed to other children her age that are walking so she has gained a new determination to walk. Only up to 5-8 steps, she it starting to practice more then I've ever seen either child practice anything before. Although she is 15months I would say she is a bit slow on her walking except the girls says like 20-25 words AT LEAST, which, in my opinion is a bit more then average. DH is away as Scout camp. I'm here smiling, although about what I haven't figured out yet.
