After spending what seems like forever trying to encourage Caelyn onto her feet i recently decided to give up and leave her to it. If she is showing interest i offer her my hand and we go for a lil toddle otherwise i totally ignore the whole thing. Well today I thought it had paid off when she stood by the tv unit in contemplation then actually set off on foot of her own accord!

Unfortunately 2 steps later she tripped over some toys she had left on the floor and landed flat on he face

Still its a 1st sign of her showing willing

OMFG!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

as im typing that last message and pressing send she set off again. 5 steps!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

She made it halfway between our 2 sofas before she fell over. Ive just nearly lost the laptop off my lap by jumping up clapping and hollering

Wahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh my babies walking!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Oh shit im crying

Oh bless her, hope she was ok! What a clever girl!

Charlie has over the last week gone from doing exactly the same thing to now walking almost constantly! Won't be long till want her to sit still lol!
He's also tried to run! That was amusing he landed arse over tit as well bless him!

Now, take a deep breath and be thankful for the next few days before the mayhem really starts! xx
