    Hi - I'm so excited that my DD took a couple of steps before tumbling into me - a day before they turned 10 months old!! It is so exciting. She was so proud of herself. I'm curious to see how long it took other babies from the time they started almost walking - to actually getting a few steps in. I can't believe how quick they are growing!

    mine walked at 11.5 months or so. it was within a week that they were walking well. and within a month they were running. get ready to lose some more of that pregnancy weight LOL and get your running shoes on! Congrats. Take video of them walking/stumbling/falling over the next several days -- you will have a priceless collection.

    My Ben took his first steps about two weeks ago! It seems like everyday he would take a few more steps. As of today he's taking 20-30 steps at a time. But today was the first time he stood up from a sitting posistion and took off walking...before he would have to pull up on something first and then take off walking. So, it doesn't take long to get the hang of it!! :)

    WTG Sierra!!

    :clapping: Yay Sierra!! Jake took his first steps a little before 11 months and here we are at 13 months still not walking!! He finds it easier to crawl at this point.

    We have been "stepping" for two months and are still not walking yet! WTG on the walking though, that is a huge milestone.

    Mine both took first steps almost a month ago & are still not walking yet. They take a couple of steps & then get down and crawl. It can happen almost overnight or it might take awhile. Get the video camera ready, it will probably get lots of use over the next few weeks!

    For Lily, it took about a month.

    Grace, well I'm still waiting for her to walk!

    Colin and Gavin have been crawling since April - they were about 8 months - and they started pulling themselves up to stand almost immediately after that. The cruising along furniture came right along with it. They have only been brave enough to start letting go of furniture of people in the past month or so. Gavin tok his first step unassisted on 7/12 and has walked up to 3 or 4 steps on his own a few times since then.

    We don't have any walker toys and I'm wondering if they would help. Any thoughts?
