Stand and Deliver


Over the past few weeks, our little Worm has learned to stand on her own! She began by gradually letting go and balancing a few seconds to full-blown standing for a minute or more. Getting a photo of the feat proved pretty difficult... she usually sees something across the room that she wants and leans over to crawl towards it before we can grab the camera.

And even more news - we're officially calling Monday, March 8 as Virginia's first steps! She managed to string together two mini-steps before falling over. It wasn't very graceful or glorious, but we are counting it nonetheless. Thomas and I both witnessed it - but she hasn't replicated it since. We think she is still a few weeks from real walking, but she's definitely making some progress.

That's exactly how John Marshall did it--two steps one night, then nothing for about two weeks. And then he was walking, and now he is running! Get ready! :)
