A Big Day for Kayla

After the way yesterday started, who would have known it would be such a big day for Kayla. She got up about 1.5 to 2 hours earlier than usual and was pretty crabby. However, shortly after that she was playing with some plastic balls and she said "ball" for the first time. Then later in the day, she took some juice, and later some milk, and drank it on her own for the first time. We have been trying to get her to learn to drink on her own but she has never drunk more than a few drops that way.

Finally, just before going to bed last night she took her first steps!!! She has been standing on her own for a couple months and getting up without having to support herself on anything but had not yet been adventurous enough to move forward. But last night she decided to go for it and took 2 to 3 steps a few times! Hopefully we will be able to capture some video footage in the near future to post to the blog. Daddy expects that Kayla will be running 5k's with him in a few more months ;)

Well, we are off to San Diego for a week - I'm sure we'll have plenty of pictures to post when we get back.
