First Step!!!!

Zoe took her first step today. I was at work so here's Vera's account of the event (paraphrased from her telephone account to me):

Zoe was crawling away across the living room floor. I started after her saying, "I'm coming to get you!" She was giggling. She made her way over to the pack 'n' play and pulled herself up to a stand. She turned toward me, let go of the pack 'n' play, and reached her hands out to me. Then she took a step and leaned toward me, hands in the air knowing I would catch her. As I caught her, we both laughed. It was so exciting!
The fact that she took her first step on her one year anniversary of coming home from the NICU makes the achievement of this milestone all the sweeter.
