Watch out world, we have a walker!!!!

So Ali has been on the verge of walking for weeks, maybe even months now!  She's been pulling up, walking the furniture, pushing her little push toys through the house, and has even taken a couple of steps here and there, but then she just gets scared and sits down to do her crab crawl.  We've been really working with her and trying to encourage her to just do it on her, but she has just not been ready.  So Brandon and I went to Ocean Isle to stay with Christy and Graham the weekend of July 13th.  That Thursday we decided to drop Ali off with Mimi and Papa (Brandon's parents) at bedtime so that we didn't have to take her quite so early on that Friday morning.  While we were over there telling her bye and giving Mimi and Papa weekend instructions, Ali decided to take off and really start taking steps!  Like we're talking 15 and 20 steps at a time!  We were sort of sick in knowing that she was probably going to be "walking" when we got home and we were going to miss it...and that's exactly what happened!  :(  At least we got to witness it beginning and it was definitely still shaky when we got home, but its safe to say "watch out world, we have a walker"!  She's gotten much more confident and quick since this video was taken.  This is still just the very beginning.  Here's the short clip of our little angel on the move:
