walking!

ANASTASIA WALKED TODAY!!!!!!!

This morning she was holding my hand and walking, which she's been doing for a while, and I got her to let go of my fingers while encouraging her to keep going. She took three or four steps before she went back to crawling.

Then, later this evening, she was practicing standing. She stood up without holding onto anything for about 45 seconds. I got in front of her and held my hands out toward her, and she walked toward me. She took about ten steps before she crouched down and then sat down.

The first time it happened, I screamed so much that everyone in the house came running. I'm so excited! My baby is walking!!!
