Yay!!! She walks! Loved watching her little legs wobble.She’s so cute. And playing with the beer is so funny! In the box, out of the box, in the box, out of the box. I love how she tried to drink one
She’s starting early!

The look on her face is priceless! It’s like, “HOLY crap, look at me walking!” She’s getting so big – congrats to the Peanut!!
Monkey was a week shy of 15 months when she first walked – just wait, you’ll be running after her and pulling her down from the counters in a few weeks…
Kudos to to you for developing an early taste in good beer – I love Honey Brown. Ha! And then she tries to drink one…hilarious. Please let her know when she’s done sorting your beer bottles that I have some recycling that needs sorting out, too.

Oh my goodness. This made me well up with tears (OK so I am very sleep deprived) – but such a milestone! And the time passes so quickly, and my boy is just started sitting, and so, so soon he will be crawling, and walking, and oh they grow so fast!

Awww! Wow!! What a day.
And sorting beer, sounds like she’s applying herself well
As I heard a woman saying to her daughter this afternoon on a train “you’re getting to be a very useful person to have added to the family” (they were getting her to check under the table for left-over stuff, as she was shortest)

oh MY! She’s so proud of herself!!! Her legs are sooooo long! Is she very tall? The sorting beer is just priceless. And, um, is she modeling some behavior there? Hm?

Walking AND beer?! This might be the coolest kid ever. She’s SO cute!

thanks everyone! she took a few more steps later in the day while uncle chris and aunt linda were here (and then sorted our current beer selection) so this post of videos was a very accurate display of her weekend activities

Yay! She is so happy and excited, and I am for her (as is Mr B, of course). She now has a whole new way to experience her surroundings.
Love the beer sorting video, that’s a girl after my own heart

Yay, congrats! What a cutie.

Oh my goodness — how CUTE!!!! I love the sorting video, too, especially when she puts it up to her mouth like she’s going to drink it — funny!

oh god, steph. i am so glad you got that on video. precious. but i have to say i think i am almost more impressed with the beer sorting. i cannot imagine giving my boys free reign to glass, and beer. they would totally throw the bottles at each other and lick the beer up if any broke (which would happen because my boys can throw). is this the difference between boys and girls? stupid question, eh?

So so cute! And so exciting! BTW, love at the end of the beer video when she finally puts one in her mouth.
Good girl!

ha, the sorting and back and forth and back and forth of the beer was oddly compelling to watch. love the way she put it in her mouth toward the end. learning good lessons from mom and dad! and the delighted squeals at walking were to die for.

Now you know that everything you don’t want touched will need to go another two feet higher. Only a few weeks until she uses a chair to make your life hell so that nothing is safe.
Great that you captured the moment on video.

OMG she is getting so big! Congrats to the Peanut!
