Walking

It had been sometimes since mommy updated this blog. Just a quick update to my milestones with no pictures.

Sat, I showed her proudly when i started to walk a few steps by myself. All these times, i have been walking around the house with support. Without anyone holding me, i rather crawl. Mommy thought maybe i m not ready to walk by myself, but i m coming to my 15mths, she gets abit worried.

How was i encouraged to walk by myself? She held me to the center of the house, let go of my hand and squatted few steps away from me. After that, she opened up her arm to encourage me to walk close to her. When i did it, she would hug, kiss and clap for me. Next she would walk further and further away.. ends up, i could walk at least 5-6 steps now.

Next plan is to let me get used to wearing pair of shoes. All along, i dreaded wearing shoes. She didn't wanted to force me to wear it since i m not ready. For she read that wearing shoes at early age is not good for the development of feet. Now that i can take a few steps, it's time i learnt to get used to shoes, so that i can go downstair for a walk.

Otylia is 1yr, 2mths and 3wks old.
