These aren't really SteelyKid's first steps, just the first ones I got on video:
She routinely goes farther than that, more confidently than that, but the big lunge at the end is awfully cute. It's hard to get her really good walks on video, because she always seems to be on the verge of disaster, either by falling and hitting herself, or by walking toward the dog while she's chewing a bone, or heading some other place where she shouldn't be....
From what I understand, the terrifying phase should only last another twenty years or so.

The dog sniffs gently at the baby in my lap. "So, what the heck is this?"
"This is SteelyKid. Be nice to her."
"But, I mean, what is it? It's not a bunny, is it?" She sniffs some more, just to be sure.
"What do you mean? Of course she's not a bunny. She doesn't look anything like a bunny."
"Well,…
I'm back after the traditional family holiday and a less traditional trip to Charleston, SC for the Renaissance Weekend meeting. Which means things will start to return to what passes for normal around here, and that means it's time to get caught up on photo-a-day pictures...
What with one thing…
SteelyKid's second-grade teacher sent home a couple of books about kids dealing with the loss of beloved pets-- one of which, The Tenth Good Thing About Barney is surprisingly atheistic. We read them at bedtime the other night, which was a little rough.
After we finished, and moved her to her bed (…
It's been a while since I've done an official Baby Jane update. In fact, I don't think I've done a proper one since I migrated over from the old site! Time flies.
So, what is Baby Jane (now Toddler Jane, I guess) up to these days? Basically, it can be summed up in three areas: Movement,…
I like that she looks like she's dragging one of her legs, like it's a bum leg, and that she's going in for a hug at the end of the video. so cute!
Awwww .... she loves her daddy!
The really terrifying part will be when she gives that look to some guy other than her daddy.
:-D
Yep, no steering, no brakes . . .
When we lived in rural Alaska, one of the prime entertainments at the yearly crafts fair/festival thingie was the 'baby walk.' People put their toddlers on stage at the school auditorium and coaxed them to walk from one side to the other.
Very well attended event, and all the walkers were cheered enthusiastically, whether they made it across or just sat down in the middle or went in the opposite direction or whatever; it was such a small town everybody knew all the babies anyway.
Thanks for sharing these cute videos.
Oh, sweet baby, and you haven't even marked your first birthday yet!!!! She is most definitely an "early" Orzel, unless her Grandma & Grandpa Orzel have proof that you and your sister were early. Somehow, Chad, I think I remember you taking your time.................
