Emma has sure taken her sweet time learning to walk. She has no problem walking behind a toy or holding onto your hand, but she just doesn't have the courage to let go and take a few steps herself. I was actually getting a little concerned that she was now 14 months old and still not taking any steps by herself. Last night we had a yummy dinner that Kelly prepared for me as a birthday gift. It was wonderful and the girls got to play with Jack and all of his toys (this is quite the treat as they don't get to play other places often). Emma was sitting on Kelly's lap and I was trying to convince her to take some steps, she took one very small step and I wasn't sure it counted but then we were able to get her to do a real step, actually it was almost 2 steps by herself, it was very exciting. Jack was clapping for her and cheering...it was so cute that he knew it was a big moment for her. Soon Emma and everyone was cheering and clapping with him because he was just so excited you couldn't help but join in.
A quick update on our other two walkers: Olivia is doing well and can walk 15 steps or more by herself but just doesn't have a lot of interest in doing so. Savannah only walks now, she is very good and can kind of run a little, which has its benefits when she doesn't want to share a toy.
