    I'm so excited my twins were born 3 months early and have started walking!!! Trevor is walking across the room and Emilie is taking about 10 steps. All this has happened in the last 2 weeks. I'm so excited for our PT session tomorrow. When she came last Thursday Trevor had just taken 1 step the night before and Emilie was not even standing by herself. I am so amazed at how fast they are moving with all of this. I was so afraid they would be so far behind from being so premature.

    And to think I was hoping they'd be walking in time for the beach in July, they'll be running by then. Thanks for letting me share. [​IMG]

    Way to go Trevor and Emilie! You must be so proud of them! Do you have a good pair of running shoes? [​IMG]

    That's WONDERFUL news! [​IMG]

    I'm not worried, but am anxious for those precious first steps (I know I'll regret it as soon as they're running). We've been cruising for 2 months, but they just aren't brave enough to stand alone....I'm glad to hear yours went from standing to walking quickly.

    The boys' cousin is 5 weeks younger than them (we were 5 weeks premature) and she's already talking and walking. I know every kid is different; but I'm trying hard not to feel like it's a competition. [​IMG]

    Lily's walking (when she feels like it) and finally, finally Gracie is almost ready to crawl. She's up on all 4's and rocking away, and when Lily did that she crawled shortly afterwards.
