Paisley had her first birthday on May 18 and she took her first unassisted steps just a few weeks later :) She's been walking while holding our fingers for quite a few weeks but she hadn't attempted to venture out on her own. She was standing at the couch and kept letting go and standing on her own so I broke out my phone real quick and luckily as soon as I did she took her first sporadic steps towards me!!! She had the biggest grin on her face while she was doing it, it was awesome!
"They" say average age to start walking is between 9 and 12 months, and walking fairly well by 15 months. So according to "them" she is right on track. But considering she's stayed on track with her peer group this whole time I had no doubt she would start walking soon :)
We're still wearing our boots/bar at night, and we've finally reached the stage where she fights having them put on :( It's become quite the workout to get her into them and I've ended up with quite a few bruises and bloodied knuckles from her kicking her feet with those hard plastic boots on. Honestly, there are some nights I'm too exhausted and she's goes to bed without them.
Paisley's First Steps!!
