"For thus says the Lord: Lo, I will spread prosperity over her like a river, and the wealth of the nations like an overflowing torrent. As nurslings, you shall be carried in her arms, and fondled in her lap; As a mother comforts her son, so will I comfort you..." Isaiah 66:12-13

All she needed was an audience....

Amelia took her first step a month or so ago. But she hadn't done much since then. She was quite happy to cruise around furniture and occasionally let go to walk a few steps, before dropping down and crawling wherever she wanted to go. That walking stuff was just too much trouble.

Until last weekend, when everyone came for her birthday. On Friday night, with my parents and I watching Amelia walked a few steps from one person to another. When she completed this feet, everyone clapped and cheered for her. And since then I can't get her to stop walking.

She walks all around the living room stopping and squatting to pick up toys before moving on again. She walks around the dinning room scavenging for food that she dropped at breakfast and that I may have missed when sweeping. She evens tries walking on the bed... something that she is quickly realizing Mommy and Daddy won't clap for.

So things have gotten a lot more interesting around here... because now the baby is gone and I have two toddlers.

Here's some pics of the newest toddler on the block:
