Lyla is Walking!

Lyla had been cruising along furniture and other items for months, and standing on her own for just as long. She was just a little unsure about those first steps, as all babies seem to be. It's a daunting task letting go of that support to walk on your own two feet!
With her confidence in tow, August 8th, Lyla took 3-4 steps towards Nathan who was holding her pacifier and showing it to her. From that day forth she has been walking everywhere! She hardly ever falls down. She acts like she's been walking for months!
The look of pride on her face from walking is just so adorable and heart warming.

London is still crawling at super sonic speed. He's also cruising along furniture and standing on his own. The other day at the park he took his first step towards me. And then that same day (Monday, August 30th) he took two more steps towards me. He'll be walking in no time! And then boy will I have my hands FULL!

Their napping schedule is a little off due to growth spurts and other developmental milestones. Some days they take two naps and some day it's just one. But they still go down at 7:00 pm and sleep until 7 or 8 am which is so nice for mom and dad!

These babies are so much fun! They have such great personalities and are really interactive. They love learning about new things, pointing and asking 'wha tha?' (what's that?), and laughing those big belly laughs at sounds and faces or whatever else might have tickled their fancy. This stage is such a great time and we are really enjoying them.

Here's are a couple short video clip of Lyla taking some of her first steps!




Here's a video I took of the babies laughing in their highchairs. This was back in June so they're 12 months here. I'm not sure if I've already shared this video or not, but here it is!
