Guess who....



... took her first steps today?!??!???! That's right.. Ms. Ada Grey!!!!!!

Here's how it went down:

I had just changed her diaper, in preparation for the morning nap, and I put her down on the floor - standing up. She stood there watching Margot chew her teether across the room and then she just took off.. 1 - 2 - 3 - 4 - 5 - 6 - plop! She took 6 steps before she plopped down on her diaper butt to crawl the rest of the way :) She is a natural! 

I think it's funny the moments that make your heart soar as a parent. For me it has been discovering their first little teeth poking through, seeing them army crawl,  Margot learning to clap, finding them standing in their cribs and now seeing Ada take off across the carpet :) I am sure Margot isn't far behind.

How exciting are those first steps taken by Ada Grey. Sure came close to her first birthday. Now you wait for Margot. Loved those two touching footsies. Sarah you have a nack for taking pictures of your babies.
Love, G-Grandma

Yay, Ada! Now the fun really begins, Sarah! I loved keeping up with mine as toddlers- love watching the waddle steps. Enjoy this huge milestone :)
