Pulling Up

Over the past couple of weeks, Nora has started pulling up on everything.  Last night she pulled up and holding on to the couch tried to take a step.  I panicked.  I'm so not ready for Nora to walk.  It's funny how with Leo I just couldn't wait for him to pull up and take his first steps.  I would watch him so closely just hoping I wouldn't miss it.  Now with the second baby, I find myself wishing for a few more weeks (dare I hope for a month) before cruising around the furniture begins.  Don't get me wrong, I'm so happy and thankful to have a healthy baby.  I get as much enjoyment watching Nora figure out how to do things as she does.  However, having been through the toddler stage before I know what is coming next.  Taking a few steps while holding on to the furniture leads to walking, which leads to running, and before I know it I'll be chasing after a wild toddler with mind all her own!  It is totally selfish but please Nora give your mom a little more time to get use to the idea that her baby girl is growing up.
