Bi-Pedal

This afternoon as I was explaining to Peter why he needed to be in timeout (personal space and arguing were involved) Phoebe came running over to me and said, "Sophie was standing and not holding onto anything and then she did this!" And then Phoebe showed me a few very tentative steps.

I looked at her, not quite believing what I was hearing. "Do you mean that Sophie just took her first steps while I was over here disciplining Peter?"

Phoebe yelled out excitedly, "Yes!"

I left Peter to his timeout and grabbed my camera on the way into Sophie's realm, otherwise known as the playroom. I helped her stand up and she took a few steps! I turned my camera on to capture Sophie's next few steps into the future.


I tried again, with slightly better results.


I guess you'll just have to trust me: we now have a toddler.

That was a comedy of errors! I laughed out loud at Phoebe's enthusiastic assistance. Sophie is amazing. It doesn't seem to bother her that big sister was bouncing all around her. Yeah Sophie!
