Walker

No this isn't a post about Walker, Texas Ranger.

It is about my little girl...who we have decided is officially walking!!! If she was our first child, we probably would've been writing it in her baby book a few weeks ago. But she's not. Heck, I don't even know where her baby book is! She really had to prove herself to us. Poor #3 will probably have to run a relay race before we believe he can really walk.

Lily is not walking everywhere. But she can now stand up anywhere...without the help of a chair, wall, adult, etc. She can walk across a room all by herself...and even change direction if she wants. In just the last couple of days she has been choosing to walk from room to room instead of crawl...so she's officially walking toward places where there is no one to catch her. But if she falls or trips while walking, she usually finishes her trip by crawling.

So there you go. 15 1/2 months. That doesn't sound so bad. I think it just felt like it was taking her forever because there is this impending deadline in April. Like, she needs to be grown up by the time the new baby comes. Which is totally unfair. I'll have to start watching myself...don't want her to grow up too fast. ;)
