How is my baby already 11 months old and walking? She took her first steps on Saturday, August 18th, 4 days shy of her 11 month birthday. Big sister Bethany started walking 3 days before she turned 11 months so April just beat her. Slowly but surely April is perfecting her walking skill and even holds toys in both hands while she methodically steps around the room. It is so cute to see her concentrating so hard while squealing with delight. I don't know if she also decided to become more vocal at the same time, but ever since she started walking she has been louder and LOUDER. I'm hoping it is maybe just another tooth trying to pop through?? Otherwise we'll have our hands full with two "Bethany-type" talkers in a few years.
She says many new words now in addition to mama, dada, hi, bye, including night-night, uh-oh, cracker, ba-ba (bottle), no to name a few.
We are starting to plan her first birthday next month and are so excited to see what new things she will discover next. We love you April!
