This child will NOT wear shoes or socks. As soon as I put them on, she rips them off. If we make it out the door with them and into the car, she will take them off as soon as I start driving. I cannot tell you how many people ask me why she doesn't have shoes or socks on when we are out on cold days. It is a battle I continue to fight on a daily basis!
Around Christmas, she started taking her first steps. She would take about 3 or 4, fall down and then crawl. She would also cruise around furniture, let go, take a few steps and then sit down to crawl. She has slowly gotten more comfortable with walking, and now she is walking all the time. She is still a little wobbly, but she is doing a great job!
She has started waving bye-bye, blowing kisses to people, and will put her hands above her head when you ask her how big she is. She will also give you open-mouthed kisses on your cheek if you ask her for a kiss. Sometimes, she will just lean in and give you a surprise kiss without you asking her to.
She is now sitting at the big table in her booster seat instead of a high chair. She thinks she is "big stuff" sitting at the table with the rest of her family.
Her very favorite activity is climbing stairs. She will climb and climb and climb! It drives her Mommy crazy! :) If you start to walk up the stairs behind her to get her, she will start dying laughing and crawl even faster. She is a mess!
She has also started throwing temper tantrums. If she doesn't get her way, she will throw herself backwards onto the floor and just have a fit right there. This doesn't serve her well when there is a wall behind her, a toy behind her, or when she is on hardwood floors.....not that we have experienced those things lately or anything.

She is so stinkin' cute!!!
What a sweetie! We always had issues with keeping shoes on, too. It must be an Alabama thing to want to go barefoot! HA! (I'm from your home state.)
