First steps

Two parts to this...

Friday night: Eve was standing a small distance from an ottoman, and she took two steps towards it. The steps were far from measured - she really kinda fell toward the ottoman,  moving her legs forward to keep herself from face-planting. I am not sure I would really count these as first steps, though it was definitely new and exciting.

Sunday (ie, today): Eve took six measured and clearly intentional steps toward my hands (I was standing behind her, with my arms outstretched in front of her), and lowered herself down.  These seem more like real first steps to me, though Graham thinks the Friday steps should count.

I think we still have a ways to go till she's really walking, since she's still not a regular at standing. But, regardless, this is a definite milestone.

I sadly didn't catch either of these first steps on video, but here are two other recent pictures.
