You are now toddling all over the place! You waited to take your first independent steps on Fathers Day, at 15 1/2 months. I had been saying for weeks that you were really close, but not walking on your own yet. You were practically running with the walker for weeks and then we took it away since it was clear you had become dependent on it. Then, you became comfortable walking while holding on to our hands, then one hand, then one finger. Then on Sunday when I was washing your tray for lunch, you were standing at the dishwasher, fussing that I wouldn't open it for you. I ignored you, then, to my surprise, you just walked over to your magnets on the refrigerator! Since you waited awhile to start walking, I feel like you were immediately pretty confident at it. It's nice you haven't had any serious falls. In the past couple of days, you've been learning to squat to pick things up and stand back up from there, without help. You are just the cutest!
Love,
Mommy
