Kylie's First Step

Kylie took her first step yesterday (February 19, 2 days before 8 months old). She has been standing while holding onto furniture and cruising for quite some time, but she has officially taken her first step by herself. She loves to stand (especially at her toy box), but she took one step to me yesterday. I think she could have taken one or two more by herself, but I was sitting right there for her to hold onto. My father-in-law saw it too and we both got so excited! I was so proud!!! She is very close to walking. She stands by herself for long periods of time and she wants to go go go...I can't believe she is growing up so fast!

Speaking of firsts...Kylie slept through the night for the FIRST time in 8 months. She slept from 10:30 to 6:20. I woke up a couple times in the middle of the night to pure silence...I could not believe it. When I woke up at 6:20 and it was still quiet...I was in complete shock. My heart started racing...Was she okay??? This had never happened before, so I didn't know what to think. She woke up three minutes later! Unfortunately, the next night was terrible and she was up from midnight to 3 am. I knew it was too good to be true. Hopefully she starts getting the hang of sleeping so mommy and Kylie can get some sleep.
