Walking and Running

Walking and Running

We joined a historical walking tour of Split and given the unpredictable terrain of the city we had both girls in the carriers. Essentially weighted vests in 30 degree heat. I'm not complaining, but these girls are getting big.

Nora spent much of the tour on her own. While Jo soaked up the knowledge, I tried to supervise from a far, letting Nora roam and explore the old city around her without the feeling of being led. When on her own, she's prone to sitting down and running her fingers across the limestone floors of the old city. She stops and peers into windows with unique figurines. At one point, she walked into a clothing store to "buy swimshorts for daddy". These walks remind me that she's starting to feel more comfortable navigating for herself.

Maeve on the other hand is actively trying to take her first step. If she can get her hands on anything study, she'll shift to a crouch, swinging her weight back and forth building the necessary momentum to stand. Given our hands, she'll pull to standing easily, stepping and even jumping. She'll be running in no time.


Highlights

๐Ÿฝ๏ธ DeListes (Split) - WOW. In a world when dinner can be more about ambience than it is the food, this place reminds us that delicious bites trump all. The owner is gruff in the most charming way, and the food is served in your grandmother's weekend serving dishes. I'm in love.

โ˜• D16 Coffee (Split) - known locally as the coffee place to go to, trending, small and a delicious iced coffee (amer๏ธicano over ice).

โ˜•๏ธ kava2 (Split) - my favorite coffee spot thus far, incredible coffee, a little closer to our apartment, which means into my body faster.
