Baby Steps

Since her birthday, Nora has progressed from taking a few unsteady steps, to walking when prompted to move toward an object she likes, all the way to walking of her own volition.  She still acts like a little tightrope walker, and prefers to walk from one object to another, but at this rate she'll master this skill in no time!

And another clip from this morning:



I also have a newfound appreciation for the "baby steps" expression.  I used to think this just meant taking small steps.  Now I can see that it means taking itty bitty uncertain steps, one or two or five at a time, steadying yourself, and then trying again.  : )
