When will Usurper actually take that first stuttering step towards the ultimate in freedom - bipedal movement? She is close, very very close. She will at times stand up and let go of whatever she is holding onto, standing there grinning and giggling like a maniac until she falls to her ass - at which time she giggles even more.
She has also taken the odd one step shuffle, but I don’t think it counts until she has moved both feet one after another.
The thing I am looking forward too when she is finally fully mobile is the absolute terror she is going to rain down on the world around her. There is nothing surer than she is going go be a climber, a bolter, a madwoman on two legs. The monkey backpack harness is going to get quite the working over in the next few months.
I do feel sorry for Little Miss though, because once the baby is the toddler then the former toddler is going to have to be very careful - I can see revenge for all the times she has been pushed around in the past.
P.S. - Sorry for the lack of posts, but as you may have known if you read Wife’s blog our house has been full of pestilence and plague of late, (and spiders) - I promise to be better in the future
Well, at least with Usurper starting to walk, she can scramble from the spiders when they appear, rather than be immobile, have one of you trying to rescue her, edging closer reaching for her keeping watchful eye on the monsters, whilst she yells LEAVE, GO ON WITHOUT ME, I’LL HOLD THEM BACK FOR AS LONG AS I CAN…
JLow’s last blog post..I’m too sexy for this shirt, too sexy it hurts..
You are right. Once she starts moving on her feet, there’s gonna be real riot in your home… as well as in shopping malls and parks!
Good Luck!

LOL Jlow - spiders are easy to deal with. Dealing with an hysterical Wife screaming at you to do something about it even though you are two hours away is slightly more difficult. I think it must be time to teach Little Miss the art of spider squashing to protect the herd while I am away.
And a bit of an update - she walked tonight, 16 whole wobbly steps
