Miracle's First Steps

Miracle has been so far very stubborn about walking. She can walk, she just won't. She started taking a few steps before her first birthday and will walk everywhere while holding your hand. On her birthday she started taking a few steps on her own, but only from Daddy to Mommy. Two nights ago while I was singing "The Lord's Army" to Axel he was marching around and doing all the actions. Miracle shocked us all by standing up and 'marching' across the living room rug! She then proceeded to throw herself on the floor laughing and yelling "boom." Then every time I would start singing the song she would stand up and clap, take a few steps and throw herself down again. We all couldn't stop laughing. Of course by the time I got the camera out to take a video she was done. Last night we rode our bikes to one of our favorite hole-in-the-wall Mexican restaurants. We were one of two families eating at the time so the kids were free to play in the aisle alongside the booth. Miracle started the process again of throwing herself down and yelling boom. This time I was prepared! I grabbed the camera but instead of what I was planning on taping I got what we consider her second official unassisted self-motivated walks.
