Watch out world, here comes Avery!

So I realized that I have not yet blogged about Avery walking, which is big news! She's been doing it for aobut two weeks now, and I think she may be ready for the Olympics or something - she is refining her skill very rapidly. Here is how her learning process has gone:

Day 1: Walk along furniture
Day 2: Take five steps unassisted
Day 3: Take ten steps unassisted
Day 4: Walk all the way across the room
Day 5: Navigate uneven terrain

It is so cute to watch her, because she looks so little to be walking around, and also because she does this aerobics thing with her arms when she is walking. It looks like she should be holding some little weights or something because she pumps her arms out, then in, etc. She also dances now that she walks, which is really cool too.

One other thing that makes me think she is ready for the Olympics is that she picks up things that are larger than her and carries them around. The fuller her arms and hands, the happier she is. She gets so proud of herself.

I'll let you know when she starts pole-jumping!
