Mayson's First Steps on her own

The big highlight of the weekend was Mayson's first steps on her own.  She had been taking little ones by herself, and of course she has been running all over the place while holding our hand.  But these were serious steps this time!  On Sunday morning we were in front of the house and we were trying to practice her walking skills.  She was just standing there on her own, and all of a sudden she started walking toward us (or so we thought).  She walked right past us and right up to Mo Mo the cat.  We had been doing it wrong all this time.  We thought she would want to come to us and that would get her walking, but all she needed was the cat.  So, we don't actually have that on film.  But, as soon as she did that I ran in to get the camera.  By then she was done and not quite as happy.  But later, at the picnic, she just decided she was done eating and got up and started walking across the grass.  By the end of the park visit, she was a pro!  Congratulations, Mayson!
