Well, stubborn though she is, Madeline has finally decided to leave the comfort of the coffee table and couch and venture out into the middle of the room. Last night in the attempt to retrieve a Little People cow from a clapping and overly enthusiastic mommy, Madeline took about five steps. She did this a few times, back and forth between Mommy and Daddy and then quit. Then, to my surprise, Madeline was so excited over a duck puppet that the Librarian was using during story time this morning, that she took off walking toward the front of the reading circle. Again, she made it about five steps before she either realized she was walking or lost her balance and then . . . kerploop! I had forgotten how much fun it was to watch a baby learn to walk. Between Mommy, Daddy, and Hannah all frantically clapping and screaming, she's probably too scared to try walking at home again.

Each milestone they make is fun to watch and rejoice in.
Good for you, Madeline:)
Maybe she was just waiting until you finished the house projects...now, look out Mommy, Daddy and Hannah!
Way to go, Madeline!
I can picture it all too well, only because the same thing goes on in our house! I am ready for Maddox to start walking so he can run around with James outside! It is fun and I love cheering him on! Way to go Madeline! Before you know it she'll be running!
