D is starting to actually enjoy standing and walking now! This is crazy considering for 5 months she's been scared to death to stand unassisted. Now she's starting to feel proud about it, and do it on purpose. She's taken a step toward me when Alan walks holding her hands and lets go at the end (she's also fallen face-first and i have to catch her lol!), and she's done the same in reverse. But those are just when she has momentum.
She took one deliberate step toward me last week, but all subsequent attempts resulted in her falling face-first again lol.
But tonight... tonight she not only took a deliberate step toward me (specifically to grab her hand-knitted elephante toy that Bio made for her that she LOVES) and kept her balance afterward instead of falling into my arms, but at one point she even took TWO deliberate steps toward Ellie! It was a beautiful night and i'm so proud of my girl. i think she's going to be officially walking before her first birthday, but then i've been proven wrong before!
On a sad note, or to keep the Skynard metaphor alive with the "the water fell on the floor" line", bedtime puking is my arch-nemesis.
