Hannah's first step(s)

I have been working with all the kids more and more to encourage them to walk. They always want to crawl to get to me because they 'know' they can do that. Well, today while I was working with Hannah, I did something different. I stood her up in front of the couch facing me. She was leaning against the couch at first, then I encouraged her to walk to me and finally took a step. She only took one step but I am so proud of her! Her second step was more of a falling lunge toward me. She definitely has that first step down though. I worked with her over and over again because she was very interested in walking. She took one step at a time multiple times and Mommy is very excited for Hannah!

She almost looks like she is mid-step here but she isn't, that is just the way she is standing.

This is after the first step - post second lunging step. This is a pic I was able to capture (in the midst of our practice walking) of her standing on her own without holding on to anything. She and Tyler can do it but just for a few seconds, so it is difficult to catch on my camera.
