walking up stairs & running (the beginning)

the bean is a very cautious little girl. it took her a long time to crawl and it took her a long time before she walked. it's the same with walking up and down stairs without the need to hold onto something or on hands and knees.

however, yesterday i noticed that she was walking up and down, unaided, the short steps to the front lawn. AS WELL AS the step to the front door. it was the first time she did this in a sustained fashion. i was very pleased. and so was she.

she still hasn't quite mastered running yet, though in her mind when she walks super fast with arms jogging, it's a "wun" (run). very funny.
