When we were in Xi’an, on the day we visited Lydia’s orphanage, we got to see her take her first steps. In fact, we were skyping with my sister Erin and her husband Brian at the time. So, they got to see them too!
Since then, she’s gotten pretty darn sure of herself on her feet. She is walking everywhere now. And, of course, everybody thinks she is a genius baby since she looks a lot younger than she is. I took this video on Sunday–Note: it was 90 degrees for some strange reason. I don’t typically let my children roam around in only a diaper. But, that day called for it.
OH MY!! You are about to lose some weight keeping up with that girl ;) Her first steps were precious to watch!!
dude. she is so tiny! that’s what easton would look like if he started walking right now!…except he can’t quite hold his head up on his own yet. :) ha!
Wow, How fast time is going…
Miss Lydia is officially a pro! Love the music in the second video. The princess is too cute!
Love it Kelly! So precious! Can you not get enough video of her? Goodness! The almost 3 year wait and all the trial dissolve in a puddle when you spend every moment of every day with the amazing, beautiful little girl! I wish everyone could feel what you feel (we feel)–I’ve said it before, “then there would be no orphans” and what amazing world we’d have. :)
Kelly,
She’s adorable!!! Gary and I were watching the video and laughing at her little swagger!!! She is so sweet!!!
Happy Mother’s Day!!

Kelly,
Lydia is just precious!! It is so great to see her doing so well! It is so wonderful that you were able to experience her first steps. We didn’t hear anything today about our TA! Hopefully we will hear something on Monday!!

Oh my goodness Kelly! Could those videos be any cuter??? Love the music you added to the 2nd one too. She is so little, I bet people are just amazed when she walks out in public. So nice that you could capture her first steps.
Hugs,
