Lilli has been walking all day. Not just the wimpy take a few steps to mama when she asks you to variety either. That's for babies. As a big ol' toddler, today she's been walking all on her own initiative. Every time she gets to her destination safely or even when she falls, she looks so gosh darn pleased with herself. I think she's finally figured out that staying upright and not having to get down and up over and over again might have its merits. Just a few minutes ago she walked about half the length of our dining room, which is a new record. Earlier though she was walking from the couch to the rocking chair and back again, repeatedly, so that was probably the record for most number of consecutive steps without falling. Woohoo!
