One foot in front of the other!!

Emilia, with the 'final' encouragement of her cousin Erin, has now joined us as an upright animal as of last Saturday at the Taylor Family Picnic. She was also putting the final touches on a few jaunts over at Mema-Jo's house later in the day as well, including her first trek from the TV to the kitchen during a commercial break!! She still will speed crawl if she falls during a walk somewhere and simple enjoys pushing her 'cars' around outside but the walking has come at 13 months and a day. We knew it would come, but after being on her feet from 5 months or so on we did wonder a bit how much longer she would make us wait for this landmark day!! Now she has a reason to wear her shoes as well.
