Walking Update...

I am declaring the official walking date for Bebe Sister to be Tuesday, January 19th, 2010. When I arrived home from a very long but still very interesting day at the woman's clinic (you can probably deduce what I did all day!), Bebe Sister saw me, crawled out of her Nana's arms, and holding onto one of her brothers Cars took seven steps to me. 


Since I stated the walking definition as more than 4 steps, I would say this qualifies. Since then, she is now standing up on her own from the floor and taking several steps. It's still quite different than when her brother started walking. He just stood up one day, started walking, and then never stopped.


However, she may not have walked really early but she's quite the chatter box. The other day I was on the phone and she kept insisting she wanted the phone - pointing and saying, "Dis...Dat" (this...that). When I finished my call I handed her the phone and asked, "Do you have Mommy's phone?" She replied, "Yessssss....Mama". I looked at her and exclaimed, "What did you say?" After which T Rex replied, "She said, 'Yes, Mama'". I could not stop laughing after that! If you'd like to read more about her speech and her one year check up, you can go here.

So, here's a recent walking video of Little Sister...



Our winner of the homemade item is Nina. She guessed the exact date for walking!

Oh my goodness!!! She's really going good too!
What a fun and exciting time!
Sage was barely 9months when she started it was crazy! Little girl reminds me of Sage. Sage was small for her age (still is) she looked so tiny walking around just little girl does! Too dang cute!

YAY she is walking! HOW exciting!!! She is REALLY good too - I am amazed, you know, how babies learn this stuff all on their own! :) Watching babies learn is just fascinating to me! :) She is sooo cute in that pink dress too! :)

I love walking. Life is good when they can walk and no longer crawl around on dirty floors (Jack and the post office)
The picture of her in her tights/dress/boots is sooo cute. Aren't girls fun?

Holy Cow!!! I can't believe how steady she is considering it was only last week that she started. I really have to say it's some of my favourite times when they go from no mobility to crawling and then from crawling to walking. Miraculous really.

I so appreciate all the beautiful comments you leave all the time. Even though we've never met, I cherish our friendship tremendously!!

Go! Go! Go! There is no stopping her now. She is going to be a roadrunner around the house. Is T-Rex ready to play tag?? Great video!
