Walking on Sunshine

We're not exactly sure where to mark one of the biggest milestones Livy has reached so far. We're not sure if its the first step she took between Dwayne and I, whether its the first 'voluntary' step she took from the dinosaur to the shelf. Its a very hard milestone to measure when there are so many variables in between.

For us, after weeks of Livy doing a two step warble, mixed in with a few 4, 5, 6 steps between Dwayne and I, we determined the moment she 'walked' was when she took 2 steps, turned around 180 degrees and then took 4 more steps to grab on to her dinosaur.

This achievement took place on Sunday, June 13th when Livy was exactly 1 day shy of her 10 months.

Today, June 15th I finally got around to setting up the camera for a little video. She's still wabbly and will still crawl over walking but a few times a day she chooses to take a few steps before sitting down and crawling the rest of her journey.

Here's our video of the Bug and some of her first solo steps.
