Everleigh Milestone: WALKING!!!

This is a big one!  Everleigh took her first steps without holding on to anything today around noon.  Jakob and I had gone out to the store to get a few items for a BBQ tonight, and when we came back, Dan immediately called us into the family room.  Everleigh proudly and confidently took about 5-6 steps, then got too distracted by Jakob to do any more.  But I think she'll be repeating the feat again immediately, because she's been so close for so long.  Woo hoo!

Nifty factoid:  Everleigh is 12 days past her first birthday today.  Jakob took his first steps on May 9, 2013...10 days past his first birthday.  Our kiddos are in sync!

November 9 is a big day in our house, because on this date last year we got our first glimpse of our little man.  Of course, at that time, he was still too tiny for the doctors to know his gender, but they assured us he was growing well and healthy.  From the first moment his image appeared on the ultrasound monitor, Dan and I were so in
