First Steps!!!

You may recall Cecilia first crawled 6 months and 1 day after her birthday. Well, she took her first steps exactly 9 months after her birthday.

I was sitting in the middle of the living room talking to James who was near the kitchen. Cecilia was standing holding on to the sofa (pounding both hands on the top of the sofa is a favorite hobby of hers). I turned to look and she was walking towards me. She only took about 2 or 3 steps before falling. But I was so excited we started applauding her. She kept trying after that and this evening got as many as 6 consecuative steps without falling. I'm not sure who is more excited, her or us.

It blows my mind - 9 months ago she was born and today she is walking! Talk about growing up fast!

Cecilia's Froggy Walk!!!

Here it is....the Froggy Walk! (Sorry the picture is a little fuzzy - we had to reduce the quality to get it online.)


Cecilia's Froggy Walk

Update

Well, Cecilia survived her first cold quite well. In fact, hers only lasted two days, which we attribute to the fact she is still nursing.

She got to visit with her Uncle Jon this past weekend, which we have added pictures off on her Flickr site below.

In the past month and a half she gained less than a pound but grown over 1.5 inches! Like a weed!!!

She also enjoys practicing walking but can't do it without holding yet.

I also got over 2 minutes of her doing her froggy walk across the kitchen floor. Once we figure out how to get the computer to handle a file so large we'll try to get it up and visible for everyone.

New Pictures!!!

On our Flickr Link on the right hand column you can find pictures of Cecilia from August through October including pictures from our visit to NY and the Baptism last weekend. Enjoy!

We hope to get a new video of Cecilia up soon!
