Climbing the Stairs

Amelia is still fighting her cold (she's been coughing today), but she's in good spirits.  She has a ton of energy right now, so I was running around on the floor with her, and I saw the cat wanted to go downstairs.  I was opening the gate for the cat, and Lia "helped" me to open it.  I'd tried in the past to see if she could climb up a stair, but we hadn't had much luck.  It had been a while, and now that she's climbing all over everything else, I figured we should test for any new stair climbing abilities.  She easily managed the top three stairs a couple of times and then got distracted by Daddy in the living room.  Fun times!

  1. Update: Amelia made it all the way up the top set of stairs by herself tonight! Daddy was ready to catch if she lost her footing, and Mommy was providing incentive to keep climbing. The clapping, cheering, and hugs from Mommy after reaching the top made it worth the effort!
