The walk of life

A new mile stone for us, and especially for Esmee: she has taken her first independant steps! Walking has become her goal in life it seems! Not only has she been using almost anything in the room to walk along, walk behind, walk next to, or walk with (ie, our fingers, our legs, a stroller, a chair, Zoey)...she has now started braving the sense of balance! Wobbly as she still is on her own two little feet, she stands for alomst a minute without outside help, and braves up to ten steps in any direction, as long as someone is around to catch her if she falls. She's happiest with an adult finger in one hand as support, and a toy (knuffie) in the other... as such she'd take us miles if we let her :)
