First words and first steps

We have had an exciting week in our household. Katie still says mama and dada quite a bit, but has added a few words now. She loves to say ooohhhh, and we believe she has said no a time or two. She still just jabbers away. We interpret her words to real words a lot of the time and a lot of times it does sound like she is saying things. It is so much fun watching her learn. Also on Monday night, Katie took her first step. It was so exciting. Katie was at an end table she loves to go and stand up at. There is a picture of the three of us on the table and she loves to point at all of us. kShe thn moved to the arm of the couch and let go, taking a step until she fell into my lap. Jason was out working on extreme makeover: home edition but I called him and left him a message. Since then, Katie has stood on her own a few times for a few seconds and then took four steps on her own last night. She was at the same table and did the same thing, left the table to hang on to the couch and then took four steps towards me and my outstretched arms. I started screaming to make sure Jason saw it and ended up scaring Katie. We will try and get some picture soon to post.
