Baby Steps

Evelyn is officially walking! She's been cruising around for quite a while and a few weeks ago finally took a few tentative steps without holding on to anything. After the initial 3-4 steps she went right back to crawling and cruising, but in the last week she's really started taking off - literally.

The other day I was in the kitchen getting dinner ready. Evelyn had crawled into the office where Jeremy was. A few minutes later I heard a little giggle behind me. When I turned around I saw Evelyn was walking into the living room. She had made it almost to the couch. My guess is that she stood up in the doorway between the living room and the hall and just started walking. She's quite pleased with her new accomplishment. Every time she stands up by herself and starts walking she gets a huge grin on her face and just starts laughing. It's so fun to watch!
