Natalie has been close to walking for several weeks, taking steps here and there. The other night as Allen and I were cleaning up from dinner, apparently Natalie just decided that she was no longer afraid to walk by herself and she began standing herself up and taking steps on her own. She would fall and stand right back up again. After just a minute or two, she was making it halfway across the room without falling. It was amazing to watch the progression! Now, a few days later, she still crawls quite a bit, but she will stand herself up and walk when she feels like it. I'm gonna have to get used to the fact that she can sneak up behind me now. I'm so used to the "smack, smack, smack" sound of her crawling that it surprises me when she is standing right beside me and I didn't even hear her coming!
This video is long, but cute. Towards the end she is even clapping and walking at the same time. How's that for multitasking!?!?
