First Steps

It happened! Today was the day and Valeria finally decided to walk!

She has been crawling for quite a while now and she has taken one or two steps, but today at my mother-in-law’s house, she decided to full out walk. I was shocked, my husband and mother-in-law were over the moon excited. We couldn’t believe it, she just decided to start after she figured out that a mini trampoline was for jumping that she would begin to walk.

She did it a few times, so we were able to capture the moment on film. Thank goodness I got my new phone and actually had room to film it. My old phone was filled with photos and videos of Valeria’s milestones. It was so exciting and I sent it to my mom back home. She seemed a little sad she didn’t get to witness it for herself, but I honestly think the little bike she got Valeria helped A LOT!

On the little bike she has to use her legs a lot, and after she mastered going forward, backward and turn (within two days might I add) she began to get off the bike herself and push it around from the back. Impressive if you ask me.

It’s the most incredible sensation to watch your kid grow and learn right in front of your eyes. I still can’t believe I grew this intelligent and beautiful little girl inside me, and I am such a proud mama. She is growing up so fast and sometimes I wish it would slow down just a little.

We are so elated about this massive milestone and we know we’re in trouble now because she is going to want to toddler run/walk everywhere. Better start getting my cardio up!

Proud mama and papa over here.

Have a wonderful day wherever you are in the world!

Ciao!
