We are SO getting there! Anna Claire is just as excited I think as we are.
Yesterday she took eight unassisted steps at school, and a couple here and there with them today. At home tonight she kept knee-walking over to wherever I was sitting, grab one of my fingers, pull, and say "up!" She wanted me to walk everywhere with her, but just one finger. She wanted the other hand free! Up until tonight she has wanted to hold on to both of my hands, and if I let go of either one she would get so mad at me. So this is really a turning point!
I have to admit I will miss her little patches on the knees of her jeans. But people who say not to wish time away and that I will miss her knee-walking, honestly aggravate the heck out of me, because yes it is so cute to see her walk on her knees - very entertaining. However, it is painful for her. Her knees stay bruised. The outdoor area at school is paved. It is I will not miss her homeless-looking, hole-in-the-toe shoes. No, back pain, I will not miss you (toting a 25-pounder everywhere I go is not really helping out with my pinched nerve and sciatica).
Oh, I can't wait to see her in dresses, skirts, leggings, tights, boots! Cute, cute, cute! This cutie is going to be even cuter!
