Status Update: Mobility

Unfortunately the area in Ruby's life that has seen the least improvement in the last couple of months has been her mobility. Since starting to crawl 2 months ago, she gets around quite well on her hands and knees. However, she does not crawl up things likes steps or the slide. Ruby also likes to walk holding onto someone's hand, but she has yet to walk on her own. For some time now, she has been able to stand on her own and has taken up to two consecutive steps (not captured on video). However, progress has stagnated during the last month.

Ruby's step, taken one month ago:



Since then we've been on high walking alert, thinking it could happen at any time. Our pediatrician did imply at our 15 month checkup that if she is still not walking at 18 months, that that is sort of a problem. However, as with many things, Ruby is just in no rush.
