A short clip from Wednesday (5/9/12). As usual, I can't rotate in Blogger. Sorry! Obviously I am a lover of the portrait orientation of the camera...
My little girl is walking! Some days she has more balance than others. She still prefers to crawl and will only walk if she feels confident someone is nearby to "catch" her. But I see her improving daily and the wheels turning on how and when to use her new found technique of mobility. She used to have no fear... until she found out how gravity works and that it hurts when you are not careful. =P She has gotten her first "head bruise" just this week. I find it hard for me to not try to catch her if she is falling when I am nearby... I end up making it worse sometimes. I just need to let her fall and learn to get back up.
I am so proud of her! But at the same time I had tears the first time she started doing it. She is no longer my baby, but soon to be toddler...

That is so exciting! I couldn't see the video, I guess because I'm checking in with my phone, but I know that those first wobbly steps are precious and dear to a momma's heart.
