Not walking, walking. Not climbing, climbing.

Olivia has been cruising along the furniture for a very long time. The first week of August she couldn't walk but by mid-August she was cruising all by herself. She is quite the climber and figured out how to climb the stairs during that time and maybe even in late July. I have been trying to teach her how to climb down the stairs with various techniques but haven't been successful.

I don't use gates but she has been super cautious around the stairs. She has great depth perception and she probably has fallen off the bed enough to know that it is scary. Well she finally figured out how to climb down the stairs. She gets on her belly and slides down feet first. She has attempted many times sliding on the bum but she just isn't coordinated enough. I know there will be many many falls in the future but atleast she knows how to get down now.
