Steppin' Out

Danee has been walking around furniture for months. We have been waiting...and waiting for her to attempt letting go, even if to just stand there.



She started pushing her toys around the floor several weeks ago using everything that wasn't bolted down as a walker, laundry baskets and garbage cans not excluded.


Then Friday night as we were getting ready to head out and watch Tyler's play I put on her new Sketchers "Twinkle Toes" shoes and off she went... 5 steps as if she had been doing it all along! I was so surprised all I could muster up was "Mike come see what your daughter is doing!". He missed it but the room full of people did not. Since then she has tried out her new skill a little each day. More and more finding herself strolling across the room before she realizes what she's done and sits down. Oh yes folks we are close!
