The Precursor...

Now I really have no clue when Emily is going to decide to walk. I know all babies are different and she will do it when she is ready. However, I can't help but think that she is going to hit this new milestone VERY soon!

She has been standing on her own the past few days for a few seconds at a time. Today...it was super long for her.

I REALLY hope she doesn't decide to walk while Erik is on shift - I REALLY want him to be here for it!! He doesn't get off work until Wednesday morning so I am hoping she can hold off! :) If not...we'll be making an appearance at the firehouse! :)

So here is a video of her standing today. Please forgive the horrible and annoying film job. I had to film and lift her up at the same time so I just sat the camera down to get her to stand and then filmed (as you'll see)! Also, don't mind the onesie. Yes, it says "Hi...I am new here" and it's a 12 month onesie (something odd about that...if it was a newborn onesie I can understand...but 12 month??). She is extremely low on onesies in her size and since we were just going to lounge at home today - she became a fashion victim. :)

So here is my standing cutie...



Could this really be the precursor???

I can't see the video :( But I will tell you that steps come next! I'm so proud of Emily!

I can't believe she turns 1 in 4 more days! What a busy year she has had.
