First Steps!!! She Finally Did It!


This is the best picture I could snap of Alexya taking her first steps!
So funny how it happened...She had taken a step or two before and then stopped and sat down and cried in frustration a few times before. Then, today I was watching TV when I noticed she was being very quiet...which is weird...so I looked behind me and saw her in the corner behind the dinner table standing up by herself..and then she took like 3 steps and sat down quietly. It was like she was practicing. Then I decided to try to get her to do it again..so I gave her one of her sandals to hold in one hand and she held my hand w/her other hand and was standing...and then I replaced my hand w/the other sandal and let her go...and she started laughing and walking and laughing and she kept walking and holding the sandals in her hands! We kept doing this and then she just started going on her own.
Crazy thing is that this was at like 4pm and ever since...she just keeps popping up and walking around the house like it's nothing! Robert came home from work and freaked out because she just walked over to him! So Crazy! I can't believe she is walking now and I'm so happy I was here to witness it and see how happy she is doing it! It's like 12 days before she turns 1...so cool cause she will be walking at her party! :) Yay Alexya!

yey Lexy!!!!!!!!!!!!! That's a great picture!!!!! she's going to be walking! The only thing that makes me sad is that she won't let me hold her because she'll prefer to walk around instead now! But I'm so happy...she's totally growing up. such a cutie!
