The setting: On April 13th, I came home from work to find T very willing to pass Aubrey on to me after spending the better part of the last hour helping her walk around the house. I then spent the better part of 30 minutes helping her walk around the house. Aubrey showed no signs of tiring...
The moment: An opportunistic break, Aubrey rests against a chair in our office. I back away. Aubrey fusses, stretching her little hand out towards mine, yet keeping one hand on the chair. She's stuck...
The feat: ...but not for long. With surprisingly little hesitation, Aubrey lets go of the chair and takes 1...2...3...4 steps(!) to my outstreched hands. Luckily, both T and I were there to witness it.
The repeat: Stay tuned. Like scotch or sipping tequila, Aubrey seems to think that unassisted walking should be enjoyed infrequently and in moderation. We'll try to get some video up soon.

Gramma Trubbul can attest to this as well as she was quite fortunate to wittness first steps this week as well....
I have a feeling that from here on out there will be absolutely not stopping Ms. Aubrey Jae!
and now the real fun begins!
Congrats Aubrey
She'll running by May 8th...and then running circles around you by June. Good luck!
