talking and walking

I am amazed and how fast Claire is learning to walk. She is just walking everywhere and fast. You can't turn your head for a second. The other thing is she is a talker. While Lynn likes to talk to me just 5 seconds before I fall asleep, Claire is talking all the time - whether there is someone to listen to her or not. Of course, I have no idea what she is saying.

Today she wanted to Skype with someone, anyone. Around noon, we couldn't find anyone one skype. She was visibly upset. But you should see her reaction when she hears this. She immediately stops whatever she is doing and makes a beeline for the computer.

We decided to take Claire with us when we go to Italy in May. Initially we were a little apprehensive about having her sit in our lap(s) for 10 hours on the flight, but then we figure she is such an easy, happy and carefree baby, that the other passengers around us won't mind. Plus we save about $700 not having to buy her a ticket. It will be a dry-run for our trip to Rome in August, when in addition to the bear, we'll have 30 other babies (students) to look after as well.
