We've had some exciting times over the past week. Maddie took her first steps on Thursday! People kept telling me that she was close to walking, but I was skeptical. But on Thursday afternoon I set her down on the floor (she's been independently standing for about a week) and she took three steps towards me. She seemed stable enough that she could have kept going, but I was so stunned that I didn't get out of the way. Later that night she did it again for the childcare lady at the gym. Finally today she took a few steps towards Eric. Tonight she also took steps towards our friend Christina. That's every time she's "walked" so far. It's really exciting and so cute to see our little girl on the go. Maddie has finally made it into toddlerhood!
In other equally exciting news, Eric and I made an offer on a house this week. The owners countered, which we accepted, so now we're in the process of getting it inspected, etc., etc. that goes into buying a house. Eric and I had been looking, but didn't think we'd find a wonderful house so quickly. It was very unexpected. It's cute, relatively big, in a good neighborhood, and was at a price that couldn't be beat.
As soon as we get some pictures of all these latest developments, we'll post them.
