Almost walking....

This week, I have watched Amelia stand and balance for well over ten seconds. It's been so exciting to see the sheer delight and surprise on her face when she realizes what is actually happening. She will even take a step, but then falls down. Consequently, I don't count it as walking yet. But the standing is a very good thing! She's still pretty unsteady and you can tell she's really struggling to keep her balance. If you look at the next set of photos, you'll understand better what some of her challenges are ;-)

She likes the step stool

See how her feet are not flat....try not to notice the "budda" belly :-)

Our next doctor's visit will address this problem.

Look at that face. She is so shocked, but excited!

Trying to take a step....

She does a great job catching herself

I'm sure she will be back in casts next week. I'm also pretty sure that she is going to be less than pleased. We covet your prayers during this time....for ALL of us!
