Natalie Walks!!!


Natalie finally started taking more than a step or two tonight for Joe and I. Her first real walking was four steps between us. She went back and forth several times before I had Rachel get the camera. She walked for about 7-8 minutes, before getting tired. Yeah, Natalie!!! Posted by Picasa

Stick'em up?


Natalie cautiously makes her way to Daddy. Posted by Picasa

Natalie had a blast tonight


Natalie takes a stroll across the family room. She laughed and gave us each a big hug after each pass. She was definitely proud of herself.Posted by Picasa

Joseph helps with Natalie


Natalie walks from Joseph to Mommy. Natalie longest walk was about 7-8 steps, but it's a huge start. I was so excited that I called her physical therapist to tell her the good news.Posted by Picasa

Daddy's Turn to Catch


Natalie walks to Daddy. I called Mallory in CA to give ger the big news. Mallory was sure she would walk while she was gone. Mallory comes home Wednesday, so she'll get to see her soon.Posted by Picasa
