She Walks


With all the craziness of Sam's birthday and the sudden realization that 4 years have passed since I brought home our little family's first bundle of joy, the second bundle of joy has been flying under the radar for a few days. But not to be outdone, Eva decided to grab our attention Sunday night. Sam and I were sitting on the floor playing with the new Trio blocks he got for his birthday, trying not to get too depressed about the Packer game when out of the corner of my eye I saw Eva push herself in to a stand and walk 7 steps across the living room floor unassisted. She's been standing without holding on and walking while pushing a stroller for weeks, but this was the first big steps alone. Sammy was so excited that his reaction was almost as delightful as her steps. Here are a few pictures and a video of her from the last week. My big girl.

OH, look at that little pumpkin! She is so cute and looking like she's had a big growth spurt lately. I love the first one of her talking/yelling. She looks like quite a personality!

That is so exciting! Seeing those first wobbly steps takes me back...

YAY! Hoorah!! That's fantastic news. You are such a terrific mama, Barb! I'm as proud of you as I am of her! (And also happy birthday to Sammie too!) xoxoxoxo
