And She's Off!

After taking only 5 steps at a time between furniture for the last six weeks or so, Anna decided that today was the day to walk. She literally stood up and walked across the entry way, which is no small feat. She is still crawling as her major form of locomotion, but has logged a pretty amazing number of steps today. Of course she is very proud of herself.
Anna is funny in that she will not do something until she is ready to do it well. She never sat or pulled up until she could get back down in a controlled manner. We never had the lumps and bumps stages, except for one fall in the pack and play onto a window seal at daycare.
Maybe hanging out with Tessa last week influenced her. Hopefully that's the only thing Anna learned, as Tessa is the Houdini of babies and can extricate herself from any constraints.
