The Harris Family

We heard from another set of parents that if a baby can walk at least 50 steps unassisted, then that is considered to be “officially” walking.

Well, on Saturday, Elsa hit that milestone and walked 64 steps unassisted before grabbing on to a cabinet to see what was inside. And on Sunday, she walked 60+ steps several times, including at Crossroads Mall. So we’re officially giving her a “walking” merit badge!

Elsa has been getting better each day, gaining confidence and branching out to walk alone more often. She hit a milestone this weekend where she now walks as her primary mode of locomotion when she’s already standing (as opposed to sitting down and crawling.)

Here’s a video that captures some of the trials and tribulations of Elsa learning to walk:
