Not long ago, Anne started walking. Unlike her brother, who took one step... then wobbled... steadied himself... and didn't take another step for days, Anne skipped the wobbly stage and barrelled on ahead. One morning, she just pulled up on a kitchen chair, looked longingly at something across the room, and made up her mind to go for it. She walked across the whole room without stopping. Later that day, when we took her for her 1 year check at the doctor, she walked all the way down the hall to the room where we'd be treated.
And she hasn't stopped since. Now she's pretty much all walking, all the time. Sometimes we open the baby gates for her, and she walks from kitchen to playroom to kitchen to playroom to kitchen, around and around the big circle that makes up our main floor. Then she charges up the stairs, back and forth on the upstairs hallway, and back to do the big circle again.
