First Steps!!

I have a lot of catching up to do, but I wanted to post this before it's a month overdue like everything else. :o) I'll try to catch up this weekend and post pics for Isabella's 1st birthday party and a few other things. Anyway, on to this week's excitement...

On Tuesday night Isabella was sitting on the floor next to Jeff playing. His leg was stretched out, and she was down by his foot. Out of no where she dropped her toys, pushed herself up and took two or three steps toward Jeff! We were so surprised. She has been walking around the furniture for the last few weeks, but she has not had a whole lot of interest of walking away from the furniture, even with us helping her. Well now she's very interested. Today she's been walking a quite a bit with some help of course. She is so proud of herself (as she should be!) and giggles and laughs most of the time she is stepping on her own. Here's some video of her taking some steps on her own. Oh, and that is a remote in her hand in the last two scenes...some things never change. :o)

Yeh IB! Congrats! You beat your cousin in walking by 3 1/2 months! I'm worried for your mom and dad- they better watch out!

Wow! You're amazing Isabella! That is so exciting! I love how you just fall into your daddy's arms as you get closer to him.
