Lillie's first steps

We are celebrating Lillie's first steps.... again! :-)
This picture was from Thursday after her doctor's appointment. These were some of her first steps on her own without her walker!
She wanted to walk all the way in the house by herself!
Mommy's arms were close by and she kept saying "no mommy, I can do it!"
Now bring it to today..... Sunday and oh my what a difference. She is walking non stop!
she walks everywhere and hardly ever wants to sit.
What was so sweet about it was that she kept telling her Daddy on the phone that when she saw him again she would be walking. Well Brad and Addie Lane got here Thursday night and she walked to him!
Her leg is sore at the end of the day from walking so much but it still doesn't stop her!
she is amazing!
we videoed her walking and hopefully we will be able to get that up before Brad leaves today. He flies out to Boston tomorrow and will be there all week for work and then he will fly back here late Thursday night. We are excited he will get to be here two weekends in a row. Then he will leave Addie Lane here with us and then he will head back to Augusta next Sunday morning!

We are excited that Addie Lane is here with us! Lillie was so excited to see her "sissy".
They have jumped right back where they left off and have been playing non stop (and fighting some too unfortunately!). You can pray that I will be able to give them both the attention they need and take care of things here with Lillie! I am thankful to have both my girls here!
