Dancing Baby

Last night, with Daddy at Aunt Kerry's house, Sonia took her first steps...and they were...you guessed it....towards the cat. With her first word "Kitty" and now this, sometimes I wonder if I should just put a little more cat food out in the morning and not worry about mixing bottles anymore... The cats seem to be her greatest joy other than being turned upside down by Daddy or tickled by Mommy. I guess we rate somewhere decent on her approval meter. Maybe not as high as cats, but I'll keep working on it.

She does walk behind her little, toy walker that you see in the photos/video below, often times falling over to the side or backwards. She'll learn. I don't see any permanent brain damage from the falls, so I think we are still doing ok.

She got into one of my cupboards for the first time today. There were a bunch of magazines in there and my good crystal (a vase, some candle holders and a decantor). Needless to say, the crystal has been put up in a higher cabinent and, well, I still think it's funny watching her rip up magazines, so I let her "have at it" on that.

In one of the videos below, you'll notice the camera is rather unsteady in a couple, short spots. That's just me shaking with laughter on the other end of the camera. Enjoy!
