Walking on Easter!


Addison is officially walking! She started walking at Ted and Angela's house after the egg hunt on Easter! Earlier in the day she started to move around like Smigel from Lord of the Rings (a reference that I obviously didn't come up with on my own), so she could avoid crawling on her dress! For those of you who aren't familiar with Smigel, he is the one who called the ring, "The Precious." By the end of the day, we think she was so tired of avoiding the dress that she decided to make the move to full-blown walking. She was taking a few steps here and there, but after we let go of her hand, she kept walking and walking and walking...all the way across the room! We had to lure her with a little candy to keep it up (a girl after my own heart), and she continued to walk across the room several more times! We plan to post a walking clip sometime soon.
As of this week, she is still primarily crawling if she wants to go somewhere fast, but she is getting more confident with the walking each day. WOO HOO ADDISON!
