She did it! Already?!
Jun 2nd, 2008 by Beth
Last week baby S, at 9 months and 3 days of age, took her first THREE unassisted steps, with only a little prompting from Dad to "come here", as he kneeled down in front of her. It was so exciting, and I surprised myself with a squeal! Oh, our baby can't be walking already?! Yes, we've certainly suspected that she'd definitely be our earliest walker, with the way she walks all around the house behind her push-along walker toy, and has been pulling herself up to standing alone before she even started crawling (gleefully clapping her hands for herself, knowing exactly what she's doing), and walking all around the coffee table and dining room chairs holding on.
And all last week she practiced... Now she's taking 10+ steps from here to there regularly, and lots of crawling on her feet, with her rump up in the air. It's too funny. She's stood herself straight up from the floor and walked somewhere a few times, but is still preferring the security and speed of crawling over walking for the most part... but she IS now walking around here regularly too! She's into absolutely everything!!
It’s going way too fast! Great picture. Have a groovy!
