Ladies and Gentlemen: We have a walker! Yep, you read that right. Miss Riley Nicole took seven whole steps in a row completely on her own. No couches, no mommy, no daddy, nothing but air! We have been waiting for this to happen. Monday night we watched her take two steps and then plop down and she's been cruising around all of the furniture. Yesterday I was at Hedy's picking her up and I watched her take 3 whole steps! She gave me a big cheesy grin afterward. Like she was saying "look at me Mom! I'm a big girl! Hedy said that she had been walking all day long and had taken seven steps in a row. We were so excited to tell and show Daddy when we got home. Low and behold she walked seven steps in a row again! It's so funny to watch her because she gets going so fast and her momentum takes her down face first. I haven't been able to capture her steps on video yet, but will post it as soon as I do.
We have one slight problem with this walking thing: shoes. She has the skinniest, tiniest feet possible. Everything she tries on is too big and too wide. Do they even make narrow baby shoes? If not, they should! Right now she has two pairs (which only one actually stays on her foot) to wear. Even though I love to dot com shop, I hate to purchase anything off the Internet because 9 times out of 10 they won't fit! My hunt for the perfect shoe continues.
Hedy also said that Riley has learned to climb up the kiddie slide, turn around on her tummy, and slide down all by herself! She is growing so fast and each day she reminds me more and more of a toddler!

Go up to Stride Rite in Valley West, they might be able to help you. They are pricer than Target shoes and places, but better for their little feet.
