Emmalina Malaya is 8 months old and walking!


We knew she'd be walking early and we were right! On the day after she turned 8 months old she started trying to walk to things on her own. A couple weeks later and she is now walking all over the place and even trying to run to things. This little girl is amazing! Not only is she a strong little booger, but she has got determination! She will keep trying and trying until she gets to where she wants to be. We have already started climbing on things. She has climbed the stairs. We barricaded her in the family room a bin and she can now climb in and over the bin to get out. She started trying to climb Aunt Nenna's bar stool chairs. If she wants it she's gonna get it.
Needless to say she is keeping Mommy on her toes. If she's not climbing on top of things or getting into things she shouldn't, then she is eating anything and everything in sight. I will clean the entire floor and she will still find something to put in her mouth. Yesterday we were at Aunt Nenna's house and she came walking across the kitchen with a huge smile and chewing on something. Upon retrieving it and examining it we came to find out that it was a CRICKET! Jimmeney Cricket!

Here is a video of her walking at 8 months. I will try to post a more recent one of her in a bit.
